Post Another Satisfied Custome

Just wanted to comment on my experience with Gert at Carnewal. He has shipped my ROW M030 kit and went the extra mile of making sure all of the parts matched. Based on the great thread that was posted some weeks ago, I got the "green" kit and Gert made sure everything was correct. The car is at the shop now getting the install and I will post my thoughts on the new ride and handling when I get it back.

Again, thanks Gert for sticking with me through the whole process.

Have to add my thumbs up for Gert as well. Ordered the 02 18" Sport Design wheels which arrived in perfect condition and in record time. Gert provided shipping and tracking information and then followed up to make sure everything was ok.

STRSHP, What model and year Porsche are you installing the M030 on? I'm waiting to see what you experience as I have one on order for my 99,996 carrera.

Good to hear Gert has a genuine reputation.

Just about to order GT3 sway bars as Ben in lj has more or less convinced me that it is the way to go for the handling I am after.

I did speak to Gert recently and he was always on the ball in regards to Porsche parts - knows his stuff very well!

It is a 99 C2 that I bought with a few miles on it from a local dealer. I will let you know my impressions. Going to Summit Point in mid-March which should really let me see the difference

Just a follow up, went by the shop today to ask for a tech on my car for the next DE to find that the car is done. It looks great. Just the right amount of drop to have the good looks without being slammed. Have put the sport classic wheels on it, so it now has the agressive look I like. Proof will be in the next Summit Point DE. I will let you all know what happens.

Hi there and good day!! I wondered other then installing the m030 suspension is there other things needed to be done before/after its installed ie alignment/balancing etc. It'll be a welcome to hear your feedback when you track the car and all. Is the ride(street) really firm compared to stock and any clearance problems ie driveway. Regards. Mike

Can do an intial assessment. Ride on the bumpy street around NoVa and DC prove actually a better ride. Not necessarily smoother but better. Clearance will not be a problem, that much is clear.
