Thanks Larry. I don't think anything had to be cut off to install as my shop would have informed me before doing so. I will confirm during pickup today though.
that would be great to know, a number of people on RL have been wondering since the similar Elephant kit requires the perch to be angle ground off the
body of the OEM shock I believe...

I would have bought them already, but TPC designed (and has only installed) these for the coupe, which is much stiffer than the Cabriolet chassis ...
a nice set of Tarrett camberplates would have been a great addition to your car while you had the struts out for the H.A.S!
Pics coming soon, sorry was out of town last night and sadly we drove the wife's car.
Suffice to say the car looks completely badass + awesome, the meatier (more square) MPSC2 tires and the lowered suspension combine to make it look beastly. The ride is also very, very nice... very smooth on the highway and not noticeably harsher on broken pavement. I'm sure the DSC V2 is helping in that regard too. Will go for a longer spin after dinner and add additional thoughts. I'm going to get the car corner balanced as well in the next couple weeks (before the next track day) so that should help even further.
Also massive reduction in tire noise too, the P Zeros are loud as hell but the Michelin's are very quiet thankfully... big thumbs up all around, aside from the cost all of the mods are very highly recommended!
And to your earlier question about the spring perch, nothing was cut from the OEM strut and it is completely/100% reversible back to stock.

This is great news good to know, no cutting! I don't know whats up with those pics from elephant racing.
I ordered the kit from autotalent a week or two ago but it's on back order so I'm anxiously waiting. I've never been disappointed with any of my suspension kits from KW. The last being the HAS (called sleeve-over) kit on my M3.

Nice one, I think you'll be very pleased! My kit took a while to arrive from Germany, 3-4 weeks at least but worth the wait.
Couple of pics from my after dinner drive... lighting isn't the best but you get the idea. LOVE how it rides/handles too, super flat and grip from the Cup 2s is fantastic. Can't wait for the next track day in mid-August at Calabogie.
Oh damn that looks good. You just made my wait time feel twice as long.
Thanks man. I need to get a proper photo shoot done, clearly my phone cam pics aren't doing it justice. Looks angry in person.

Not so far but I suspect you will be correct. I can hear the plastic piece underneath the front lightly scraping over bumps in my alleyway but otherwise have been fine so far. Good news is I'm going to have my shop adjust the ride height for the winter so no issues with clearance when it is a bit messy out.
Been following this thread for awhile: Your car is GORGEOUS, and just how I would build a 991 GTS if I had the opportunity.
Just saw this car for sale listed on Porsche's USA CPO site. Looks like it could be your twin: certainly can't be a lot of Sapphire Blue Aerokit cup GTS' running around. If only I had $130k burning a hole in my pocket
