Good luck

Unfortunately, it's about an hour drive away, I'll keep an eye out for possible similar curbs around the area.

My dealer in Atlanta, Hennessey, had never done it either when I had mine removed last summer. They were very accommodating however, said they would research it, and called back the next day to say that yes it was doable. One hour of labor and I'm sure it was less than that, but that's the least they'll charge for.

Lastly no PSE (which can be added) or SPASM (which cant be added).

I see some with lot less miles. 18k 2013 4s and a 9k 2s.
One thing after driving them is that I felt the 2s was a bit more peppy in engine response. The 4s listed as pse but was replaced with a borla exhaust which is permanently on. (The button does nothing)
The 2s does not have pse which I am inquiring about getting installed or replacing the borla in the 4s.
The 2s is standard pasm and 4s is spasm which looks nicer I must say.

For my personal butt calibration, SPASM is perfect in "Normal" for daily driving and SPASM in "Sport" is perfect for twisty mountain roads or track.
That being said, I have made a couple mistakes parking and thanks to black plastic lip, they haven't done any damage. I feel like I'd have screwed up a painted lip by now.

Quick Update.
After much deliberation, I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the White C4S and swap the steering wheel, disable Power Steering Plus (Dealer agreed to it), and if I am too annoyed with the exhaust (I think it's actually a Fabspeed supersport) I can swap back to PSE. The button and other hardware is still in the car, just need to hook up an exhaust and potentially sell the Fabspeed to recoup some cost.
What it boiled down to was, when looking at both the C2S and the C4S next to each other, my eyes kept admiring the C4S more, with the lower SPASM stance and the wider fenders.
I will post pics if/when I get it.
