Don't look for validation in others. If you like it.. you like it. Be happy.

Is that top Black or Metalic Seal Gray? Hard to tell from the pictures. If it is black I say leave it and go with black wheels(gee I wonder why) and if it is Grey, then I say paint it silver to match your car and leave the wheels alone.

The color combination almost suggest you have the soft top up
I love it

re new h/roof

maybe time to invest in clear light units, ditch the orange ones and dress up the boxster to go with new look roof....new lease of life...just an idea, mineis 03 facelift so only used to clear light units, maybe im biased lol

It looks really interesting. I'd like to see more photos. Kinda looks like your car has a 5 o'clock shadow. Doesn't look too bad though.

It sorta reminds me of pre-1995 Acura NSXs, with their black dome section.

I'd advise against black rims... that's too much grayscale action -silver, gray, AND black.
