Also, is there a way to bring it down the ROW standards without replacing the whole suspension - not that I'm opposed to this idea, its just a bit expensive to drop in coil-over Bilsteins at present.
Thanks,

RoW is 2 cm lower in the front wheels and 1 cm in the rear compared to North America. Probably works out to a little less than 3cm difference at the front lip. My guess is that with the roads in the northern US often being in poor condition, Porsche allows us a little extra suspension travel for comfort and longevity.
