Default Thanks to Jonathan @ Brandywine!!
Yesterday I drove up to Brandywine Porsche in PA to get H&R Springs installed and it went great. Much love to Jonathan (the performance parts guru) and Kevin (the tech) for doing a great job at a great price! As I was taking pics and getting ready to leave, Jonathan threw in some clear sidemarkers. Bravo, sir!

I am 100% happy w/the service, the prices, the whole experience.

Pics of the final results:

Love their dealership also. Prices and workmanship are excellent. Recommend them to anyone in the SE PA area.

Your car looks great! Are those wheels 19", or 20"? How much did the H+Rs drop the car, 3/4"? Thinking of adding them to mine.

Car looks beautiful Chris.
How is the ride on the H&Rs? Is it lower (it looks it) or stock height? Any problems thus far with driveways and the like?

irish - They are 19s - 19 x 8.5 and 19 x 11. The drop is 1.25" all around

Coochas - The ride is awesome - like stock, just lower. I take care with driveways, but no real issues so far.

MHC2S - Thanks for the compliments!

Next up is the Champion F77 kit - let's hope my tax guy comes through!!

Chris, how did you come to Brandywine and not have this done at a more local dealer. I was aware of their reputation for competitive parts pricing, but not their service/mod capabilities over that of other dealers. I guess I'm really lucky to have them 30 mins away!

I heard about their mini-meets on Saturdays, so I went to check it out (and pick up some Adidas race boots - they didn't fit). So I ended up talking to Jonathan about parts, etc. and he told me about the 50% labor and decided to lower my car. The service has been top-notch - you are definitely lucky to live nearby.
