May I ask where you bought the stripes from?
Thanks.

Nice stripes. Reminds me of mine.

I stumbled in the garage while my hands were full.

Sucked it up and installed Hella smoked side markers today. $75 for the pair seems a little excessive but I guess its a $75 improvement in looks over the originals (especially on a grey car). Clear/smoked headlights Im restoring at the moment so still running the colored ones that came with the car till then...

Nice wheels! :cool:

One of the easiest yet most impactful upgrades imo. Nice!

Are you made of steel? Holy cow

Typical overweight American bolstered by holding @ 30 pounds of scuba diving weights. Along with the snap decision to not drop the weights on the car and/or my feet.

Installed and polished Litronics headlights.
Used the Meguiars kit for polishing, not 100% satisfied. I'll polish them again this winter using the 3M kit.
But the car looks indeed way better with the Litronics :)

I got pretty good results using a video by Chris Fix. And its not just a cut and buff method, its new clear coat as well. This old fashion way seemed to give me better results than the mothers sanding disks system I tried previously on these same headlights. Additionally I did follow up by using the polishing ball that came with the Mothers kit and used the same cutting compound, polish and wax from the Meguiar's paint correction kit I used on my paint to get out the orange peel and give them a wax protectant. The clear headlights Im restoring now will get six light coats of clear coat not just the three that Chris did, and I did on these pictured, as they had more pitting that didnt come out with sanding. Just a thought...

Took down the For Sale sign yesterday before skipping town for the holiday weekend. Later, the little lady and I went for a midnight top down drive and enjoyed the stars and some early fireworks. Nothing like a midnight drive with the top down. :)

I need to mull it over for a while...

I replaced both the rear track arms on my 2001 Boxster S.

I used the 987 arms. They appear identical to the 986 ones. Only visual difference is the part number.

Photos showing both arms on my flickr site here:

What a difference! No more slow speed rattling!

Today I did a complete detail starting with Lexol leather cleaner, then applied Lexol conditioner. I treated all the rubber with Lexol conditioner, cleaned the floor mats and vacuumed. I removed all the dried out, stuck on bugs with Goo Gone, then treated the whole car with New Car Glaze. I did the wheels and all the glass, brushed the top and used a lint roller on it. She shines and smells good inside. Tomorrow I'll take her for a good spin on a winding back road to listen to her howl.:cheers:

Replaced the passenger side window regulator, on my 99, was easier than I thought and works great!

What kind of nonsense are you talking about?:eek:

I was convinced that it was time to sell it and buy a used Toyota Yaris or something, but that midnight top down drive with the stars was really an eye opener. I used to do that a lot in the first couple years. :)

I still have a dilemma, though: my DD is about ready for retirement and I just can't drive the Box every day.

That's a tough decision, I think you would regret selling the Box though after all that you have put into it, good luck!

A Yaris? :barf:
Downgrading from a Boxster to a Yaris? :(
