What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

Nice.
The center caps—I've considered doing that myself. The ones I've got are color as well, but the years have taken their toll: they've gotten faded and dull.
Where'd you get your new ones? Pricey, or not too bad?

Mines were faded too and beyond repairs. After looking at the cost of the originals, I found an aftermarket wheels website that offers more affordable chinese replacements (around $25/set with shipping) that good enough for me. Fitting was decent and for the price, I got the silver/black ones too in case I want a change.

The site name is rhino tuning. Not sure if I can post the link so just send me a private message if you have troubles finding the site.

Thanks, got it.
I don't know if we're supposed to post links or not, never really worried about it. (Been doing it, at least on occasion, for like a dozen years...so far so good. )

Installed a new AOS to replace the 'smokin one'. Now the smoke is gone. More testing tomorrow on the road :dance:
After reading and watching YT stories of very difficult change of AOS, this actually was an easy one. Aprpox 20 minutes t take the old out and approximately same like 20 minutes to put a new one in.
Plenty of oil in AOS hose to intake.

Old AOS has some oil also in the top most hose connection.

New AOS in.
