Default Alignment Question

Are shims required for anything?

I'm taking my V to have a friend who is a porsche tech align it at their dealership. I've got the specs, is there anything else he needs?

I had the aggressive street alignment per the FAQ done to my car. No one at the shop mentioned anything about using any shims.

Most modern cars in the recent years do not use shims. Definitely a thing of the past.

Ok, thanks guys. He asked because they don't use any shims either and don't stock any.
