What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

I took my Boxster to a PDR outfit here in Winnipeg to have several small but noticabe (to me anyway) dents and one 'pimple' fixed. The work looks amazing. I had 4 slight depressions, 2 on each front fender, and a raised pimple on the rear trunk lid removed. The pimple was caused by closing the lid on a plastic bottle in the trunk. Broke the bottle but raised a welt.

The finished results are superb. Amazing, the car now drives better as well! I think I gained 5HP.

The best PDR guys are artists in my book. I've had a few done by a guy that comes to my office parking lot and does his magic there, and those spots are perfect!

Replaced my ignition switch. Harbor Freight has an $8 precision screwdriver set with flexible extension that made this really easy - took about 10 minutes.

Then had to jump start the car due to the old switch keeping the car stuck in ACC...oops.

Replaced my top with a 2003 top and frame! No more split window and no more window chop
Took me around 3 hours to swap - including sorting out some mistakes such as pinching window heater wire and breaking a plastic ball joint.
Purchased the top from LKQ.
So how much is a 2001 top with a cracked plastic window worth?

That's awesome!
Did you have to do any work on the electric bits?

Car is 2001 so no electric work needed.
Electrics only needed on 99 or earlier if you want to upgrade electric transmission parts and relay.
