New toy to tinker with

Hey everyone!

I've been a long time lurker around here and I finally decided it was time to buy a new toy. Its a 2002 Boxster (base model) with 50K miles on it.

I had a 911S "back in the day" which I sold prior to getting married. 3 children and 12 years later I figured it was about time I got back into Porsches.

This is strictly a car to tinker with and do some DYI stuff for myself and my son until he turns 16, at which time I'll hand the keys over to him. (he's only 9 right now so that means I get some time to play with it as well!) We are planning on doing a complete color change (maybe), body kit, rims, springs, and upgrading the interior. Its quite a long punch list, but we do have time on our side.

I do have one question for everyone... while washing the car today, I noticed that the side vent surrounds are different from the passenger side to the drivers side. Is this normal or has a past owner of the car changed something?

I look forward to chatting more with everyone here and getting some great ideas from everyone's awesome cars.

Cheers

Mark
