i don't know if I would do the more modern looking GT3 bumper cover.... but I"ve seen the bumper covers on 996 GT3s....that would look pretty cool on my car..they have a more pronounced front lower lip, but overall look very simialr to the boxster cover.... i assume a cover like that likely doens't really cost muchmore than the generic bumper cover the body shop would put on... so I could likely get it swapped on for practically free...

painting the roll bar might be pricey if they charge me to remove it,, pull off the front section,a nd then paint and reinstall..... if I do that, not sure if I'd do aluminum color or ocean blue and match the body color....
