as for a permanent solution, you'll need aftermarket toe links. they're available from Tarrett Engineering and also from Che at Delubozparts (ebay). Che's are fairly affordable (see here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsche-986-Boxster-97-05-Adjustable-Rear-Toe-Arms_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33583QQihZ020QQite mZ300154881897QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1VQQtrksidZp163 8Q2em118Q2el1247)

no matter what you go with, it's a good investment to buy the concentric bolt locks from Tarrett. the concentric toe adjusting bolt has a tendency to move; these hold them in place so they don't move when you drive. they'll also prevent an alignment shop from using the concentrics to adjust toe rather than the double adjusters on the aftermarket links.
I spoke with Ira (the owner of Tarrett), and he said that these couldn't hurt, but aren't really needed on the boxster... He said that because of the design of the 996/997, that they help on those models, but the boxster design is different and not really necessary. Do you find that your toe gets out of alignment right now without these?
