Shocks
I've been shopping shocks lately and have decided to go with KYB rather than the original Boge or Bilstein which are much more expensive. For those searching, the rear shocks are KYB pn 343147 and the front are KYB pn 343144. You can find them at most import parts stores as well as Zims.

Don't forget that you will need the special mounting bolts for the front shocks. These are made from high strength material and should come from Porsche - don't buy the cheap VW equivelent. Several people suggested replacing them if you still have the old ones. They are as expensive as the shocks but worth the safety risk.
