Actually, they are called aglets. You should know that... being in the profession, I mean.

57 years young.
I work in the commercial roofing industry.
Drive a 2001 Arctic Silver Boxster on the weekends.
(and a 2015 Infiniti Q60S during the week)
This is my second Porsche.
The first was a 2007 Cayman S that I drove off the showroom floor.
(that was a great day!!)

Turned 49 today. National director at a cancer charity (LLS). '98 w/50K. Before: '66 911. My first car was a '63 356B. Sold it to stay in school. Biggest mistake I ever made. Boxster eases the pain nicely.
