The 3" doesn't fit and the 2" isn't long enough to reach the back side of the barrels. I use the EZ Detail brushes for mine. I have the large and small.

Is it a good idea to lower the car for cosmesis? The shock adjust are there for corner balancing not cosmetics.

I'm sure it will be just fine. Many have already done it. Porsche is simply setting it up for suitability on the street. Most track alignments have the car lowered with more aggressive camber.

Default Adjusting Ride Height w/ Factory Coilovers


Before:

























After:



































Front Lip Height:




The rake looks acceptable to me. I may see a little more leveling after header and side muffler delete. You may want to leave a little more room in the rear.

Car looks great. When do you think you'll have the new headers on the car?
