Now headed for a drive on this beautiful 60F clear day in Baton Rouge
Along those lines I was giving the Boxster its weekly wash and noticed the "S" on the trunk was coming loose, so I removed it, and also gave it a repaint.

I used Acetone on the "S" to prepare and clean it and to my surprise the existing paint came right off, leaving the unpainted black plastic.

I added several coats of Silver metalic flake paint and it looks better than new.
