even then its a toss up. On PPBB a guy wrote about how he ordered a Turbo style bumper for his Boxster and got the run around from Brandywine when a Fiberglass part arrived instead of polyurethane one. It may not have been a smooth transaction but at least the buyer has some recourse in dealing with a dealer vs. "some guy".

p.s.

I don't want to sound like a buzzkill, but if you live in an urban area as I do, Litronics are not that big of an improvement over the Halogens. Even on the highways which are always very well lit around here in NY/NJ I don't see a vast improvement.
Rural/Suburban Boxser owners might have a different experience.

In retrospect I would have made this a bottom of the list upgrade, well below performance tires/wheels/radar and my all time favourite thing I have ever spent an aftermarket penny on: Recaro GT3 seats.

GT3 Seats x 5
Tires x 4
Radar x 3
Wheels x 3
Satt. Radio
aero kit: not installed yet
Litronics (not much bang for the buck)
rear speakers (I only useful when top is up, so during winter it gets x 2 )
clear tail lights + 1/2 (only because no one noticed)
