Cam Pad Service? & IMS Retrofit

Hello Everyone,

I've been lurking on this site for a while. My wife has a 2000 Boxster S with about 75000 miles on it. We bought it used with 50,000 miles and have changed the oil quite a few times (3,000-5,000 mile intervals), put two new O2 sensors on it (each at a different time), had the 60,000 mile service done at a Porsche shop and replaced the brakes. We're taking the car into the shop this weekend to get a new clutch and the IMS retrofit bearing from LN put in as preventative maintenance.

I've been reading about cam pad wear and replacement. I've searched quite a bit, and can't find a clear answer as to how much the service might cost? Does anyone have an estimate? Does it need to be done on our model?

I know some would say that the car is basically worn out but I still want to keep the car and right now it runs perfectly (the clutch seems fine too)....

Thanks for any feedback.
