Huge help, thanks. Car looks awesome.
I already have had a few run-ins with scraping the bottom of the bumper so I am obviously worried about lowering it. It does need to be done but it will def limit the places i can go..

Thanks. I'm not so sure you'd want to run the front at that height with the GT3 front bumper/lip. But, coil overs will at least allow for an adjustment.
The other thing though is working on your approach to slopes at an angle.
Also, for your reference - measuring from my 997.1 standard bumper cover there's 7" from the ground to the bottom lip. So if you measure your drop you can back into the height given what you might think your tolerance level is given what slopes/angles you have to deal with. I'm trying to decide whether to go with the GT3 front or ROTtec's front carbon fiber lip to compliment the duck tail. I think where I live I won't have a problem with either although it does make it more prone to damage with either. For me I just couldn't stand the OEM height on the car.

The drop is happening. The car is at Porsche now and I've asked them for a quote on the labor.
