you will be amazed at how much better the car looks after you lower it. throw a 15mm spacer out back and call it a day.

Does suspension work void my 3rd party warranty?? It's very tempting to start thinking of springs/shocks or coilovers. I had bilstein pss9's on my boxster s and absolutely loved it.

thanks for everyone and comments /ideas

Chances are it will void just for the suspension. I was told that would happen with my MB CPO so I could only imagine that a 3rd party would be just as strict. Your not changing your camber so you dont really have to worry much unless your shocks blow, but that wouldnt be a warranty item anyway.

i think it would depend on the suspension failure honestly. i CPO'd my car then immediately had KW V1's installed and my MB dealership never said a word. you are not going to have any real issues outside of strut mounts anyway which you can easily have replaced for very little money.

How do KW v coils feel comfort wise vs. stock mush ? My wife drives it daily and have yet
to bring it up.

I haven't done any deep research, but is there any kits avail. for convertibles. I assume yes, H & R or eibach ... what is a good shock to pair them up? Bilstein ?
