Thanks for all the feedback guys much appreciated. Once the parts arrive i'll knock it out and get her aligned.

FWIW, I got mine aligned at NTB last week after install of new motor mounts and delrin bushings along with urethane sway bar bushings. They did an excellent job and was only about $80

Make sure the alignment machine is the type which you drive on, i.e. dont want them to raise the 928 as that will unload the suspension and make alignment incorrect.

To me, that is the quickest way.
Exactly how I do it.

Air chisel the edges up all the way around, then punch them out. Quick and easy.

I had Roger's delrin bushings installed on my GTS but the improvement was not as dramatic as reported on older model year cars.

The original bushings in the GTS seem to be made of a harder material and were not as deteriorated as most other cars indicate.

That said, I'm still glad I did it.

What motor mounts did you go with?
