Sweet!

As a person wanting to one day a) change their wheels and b) lower their ride; it would be really useful if those showing their wares could state what their wheels are and how their ride height is achieved.

Pretty please.

Last weekend, i just did corner balancing and the car should now be one or two centimeters lower than a stock 964 RS is.

Next spring, i´ll have orig. RS brake and LMF with sachs performace clutch installed...

Beautiful car - although I'm biased! I was eying your ride height and thinking there's NO WAY I could run that low on my local streets. As it is with my KWV3 setup I'm getting into the bumps (I think) so I may have to raise the car a few mm (see below).

BTW - when you had the paint work done - was the original single stage and did you stick with that or did you go clearcoat?

If You are talking about the paint job on the car You should talk to them. Many of their prospects are here. Info. on bad quality scares people away.

Well, i spoke to them some times and they had the chance to satisfy me with the secend paintjob they did after my concerns with the first try... But after two years, the look of the car is quite 'Used'..

If my statement is a problem, please delete my previous post...

Everybody who does not believe me is invited to have a look on my car the next four weeks. In october i'll have a third (partial) paintjob here in munich...

Bad words but unfortunatelly true :-(
