Ernie quoted me $2895 plus $100 for s/h for Carrera lights to fit a boxster today. He quoted hand-painted center caps for $175 if I bought the wheels and tires.

This price included good tires (Pirelli or Bridgestones I think) as well. I am torn between factory wheels and these aftermarket ones. They probably look identical. The weight may be the only difference.

Oh BTW, the Ebay aftermarket wheels in my previous post above weigh in at 24 and 25 pounds front and back, respectively. At least that's what I think I remember him emailing me (I'm not on my laptop so I don't know for sure).

Anyone know the weight of the factory wheels?

... and I just installed my clear side markers and they're sweet! Took a whole five minutes to pop them out and the new ones in.
