So I opted to invest a little sweat equity and discovered it was a task that takes a lot of time, way more than I had anticipated. Took me a week of evenings to get it stitched in and the result is marginal at best, however I now have a rear window and that was really the point of that little adventure ($80 + 24 hours labor vs. $1800 for a new top).
My advise, if you can justify the cost, is a new top with glass window, which means no more need for the boxster 'chop'.

mind posting some pics of your work?
did you remove the top from the car, or did you do it while it was still attached to the car?
