Don't know about measurements, did not check them...
I did just measure the GT2 and mine, and my car is SLIGHTLY lower in the front, and SLIGHTLY higher in the rear.
The PSS-9's are from FVD, and they did them for $2300.
Regards,
Evan

Evan -

The car looks awesome!

I've also recently lowered my car and am now reconsidering the factory aerokit - not yet installed. My concern is that I'm going to scrape the crap out of the front air dam. Have you had any problems with that yet?

Any others out there with lowered TTs running the aerokit front airdam? Any problems?

Yes me!!
Scrapes everywhere!! Have to be really careful (my car is not even that low!!)...It also depends on the road quality where you live - here in Boston the pot holes and uneven surfaces are a year-round problem!! Time to move I guess....I think the Techart front is gonna be even worse

Mansour -

I was afraid of that. Are the scrapes noticeable from the front? Or just from looking underneath?

I noticed that Porsche's description of the product says that the front and rear spoilers should be used together (for high speed stability, or something like that - don't recall their exact quote). I wonder how important that is?

If not crucial, I could stay with the stock front spoiler, which bends more easily (without breaking) and can be lightly sanded back to a relatively scratch free surface. Then just install the rear aerokit part...

About time you lowered that thing, now it looks like it should. Very nice!

Looks good... just watch that front lip. I saw a guy on SoBe yesterday drill his right into the ground at the car wash. He wasn't happy. His wife then did the same thing in her MB SL500... so I guess they got enough flow to make it not a problem...

Yea I am being very cautious right now...I can't even make it over the speed bumps in my school parking lot without doing the old angle thing...or just going around them on the grass .
I will see you next week at towers...did you see that Richie is having another meet at Castle onthe 25th??
