I bought and installed a wood kit in my '99 Boxster and it is an enhancement and not a replacement for the really expensive real wood parts from Porsche. I started out with the OEM parts and found that sun and heat cracked and separated the very thin and cheap veneer from the plastic part. They're ok if you have a hardtop and don't leave your car in the sun for very long periods of time.
I do not like the cheap look of the plastic in Boxsters so a little enhancement looks good and if I get tired of it it can be removed with a hair dryer. Much less expensive than replacing the OEM stuff when it goes south.
