jacking a 964

I have an RS America. I want to put it on jackstands and remove all 4 wheel for refinishing. I expect to put the jackstands under the jackpoints at each corner of the car.
If I want to put a jackstand under the jackpoint, where do I jack the car?

Or is there a better place to put the jackstands and use the stock jackpoints to jack the car?
I did search the forum but I did not find answers that I wanted.

I jack up one side from the rear jack point and put a jack stand under the front jack point on the same side. Repeat on the other side. Finally, jack up the rear from under the engine and put two more jack stands under the rear jack points. Reverse the process when you are done.

I can't do the opposite end lift as the car is too low. So I tip it up on one side and place the rear jackstand under a suspension point. If it is going to be there a long time, I'll then jack it a little higher from the engine case and move the jackstands out to the rear jack pads.
