looks nice. measure fender to ground distance and check after 2-4 months, if it remains same you got good springs, if it starts to decrease every month you may need to put eibachs instead.

While I am still on the mend from surgery, I am generally out of the sling nowand was able to drive my 997 after a follow-up visit to GMP for adjustments to the Numeric Shifter and a transmission lube refresh.
While reverse is still pretty difficult to get into, the adjustments and accompanying lubrication made all of the difference in the world. The shifting is now uber smooth and not as notchy as before. The true test was my wife. She is now delighted *except for reverse.
Also the new transmission lube eliminated the intermittent synchro grinding we were experiencing going into 4th and 5th. We used Red Line’s MTL 75W-90. HIGHLY recommended.
If you have any questions let me know.
