x73 confusion
About to pull the trigger on the x73, I find two different pn's -35/3x is a euro 20mm lowering kit while -38 is the x73. Does anybody know the correct number, I(and Loren) think it is the latter., the parts guy at braman porsche swears they are the same.

Regarding Carnewal
I had a very good experience with them when I bought my X73. I don't remember specifically if the import duty was included in Carnewal's quote so be sure to figure that in when price shopping. Gert will give you the straight story.

When I was going to buy X74 for my former Targa (from Gert), there was a separate part number for Targa - it was actually the springs that were slightly different to account for the weight difference in Targa versus other models. That may be your issue, i.e. C4S coupe versus C4S cab. At the time (about 9 months ago), Gert's prices were better but the exchange rates for the Euro have changed a lot since then (he was also offering a sale price at the time). If the price is competitive, I highly recommend Gert / Carnewal.
