I think it's level from left to right, but I know there is a slight tilt down toward the garage door side for water drainage. I know it makes a significant difference for corner weighting, but I don't think the alignment will be too far off because of it.
In any case, I just wanted to get the alignment decent so I could drive it on the cruise, I will be doing it again after I corner weight the car and then it will be perfectly level.
Pat, Emily didn't think it was too weird (I always get these crazy ideas), and she likes saving money haha. Her brother didn't seem to think it would work, lol.

Is that roof just based off the newer 240 model?

Got my corner balance done, I was super lucky. I had only setup the ride height in my garage at each corner to what I wanted it to be, and at the shop with scales I ended up with 49.9/50.1% cross weight without making any adjustment. This is full weight, full tank, with me in the seat.
LF: 429 RF: 400
LR: 638 RR: 613
However, I just remembered that I'm running slightly taller than OEM diameter tires right now, and soon when I switch to the RA1 the only close size is slightly shorter than OEM, so my ride height is going to be a decent amount lower, and I may decide to raise it up a bit for fear of scraping, and have to corner weight again.

Some goodies came in the mail.
Carbon fiber access panels

New mirrors, they look way better than OEM in my opinion. They came with a pre-cut piece of vinyl that fits awesome, covers the unused hole and the area that used to be red.
