removed my 08' yesterday
JoeR,
I just took mine off my new '08 boxster yesterday. My car is guards red and the vents are silver ( Porsche wanted $1100 to order red to match the car ). I took them to my local body shop and they will paint for me for $150.00. Anyway, to your question. It is a difficult process but can be done, here's how:
The vents have two small tabs at the top of the vent to vent opening. Pull down on the vent ( at the top vane ) till you can get your fingers on the top of the vent edge. Pull down and out which will seperate the top of vent from the panel ( you will see the two small tabs ). This is where it gets difficult. Continue to pull out and down. The vent will bend but will not break -- trust me. It will eventually come loose with a " pop ". It takes more force than you would think. I removed the drivers side first with some effort. The passenger side took several tries before I was able to " pop " it loose. Let me know how you do.
