Perfect stance now!! It makes me want to have mine lowered a bit more too - especially at the rear! I found that the KW's made a huge difference to mine - if only Porsche had made it like this in the first place!!

Yes I agree. Perfect stance! I will be fitting KW v3s to mine shortly so i'd love to hear your feedback on them. I currently have bilstein shocks and h&r springs. Similar to your set up. Car looks awesome by the way.

Looks really cool, I have a C2 tip with Cup 1's too, and about to get a set of KW's to get a similar look & feel going. Do you know how low your final specs are?

No idea of actual height, I can take some measurements tomorrow if you like?
I was close to going with Bilsteins but reports of rapid corrosion put me off, so far very happy I went with the KWs instead.

I didn't change the top mounts. Although it was in the back of my mind to do so I hadnt bought any by the time the car went in for the first phase of work, and then upon inspection the garage said my existing mounts were in great condition.
Would be interested to hear if anyone recommended changing these as well, and why?

you were running H&R springs (greens) on the original boge coilovers? was that an upgrade somewhere along the way and could you achieve the same or similar ride height / stance that you currently have?
any old pics? would be nice to see the new vs old... thanks!

She sits beautifully...
I went the B6, HR Greens myself with Superpro bushes and RS +10 set up... RS mounts like yourself too - big difference and now all very chuckable!
New front OEM top mounts, but only because the originals were starting to come away. No other reason.
