struggling to find anyone that can do the car as its "very low" - im off to take it to my local Porsche dealership, think they can do it..

iv adjusted the camber myself on said wheel and matched it to the other side and it not only looks good it also drives better, but im off for the full alignment doing for sure

cheers for reply guys and hill billy (DH)

Just thought id add. You cant do a 4 wheel alignment only 2 wheel on the front as the rears dont have any adjustment

Every garage can, but doing it right is another story

My Mate at VW Dealership Leeds did mine, they had the car for 6 hours and did a fantastic job

Now entirely true as the rear beam mounts do actually have a slight bit of tolerance in the them.
