Well, IMO, I think it depends upon the color of the car, and of course, personal choice. The Boxster's rear is pretty big, and in most colors, the painted bumperettes magnify this.

I quite like the black bumperettes on my Guards Red car. I think it breaks up the monochromatic look, and a break in color looks good - Black/Red is a classic combination.

Then again, I think Guards Red bumperettes would look good as well.

That's why, when I saw a pair of perfect bumperettes on Craig List for $20, I jumped on them.

I'll have these body color painted and whenever I feel like changing the look, I'll take 5 min. and swap them - the best of both worlds.
