Hey Mach, go back to the website, and you can send an e-mail to the parts department. Send them the part numbers from SD987's excellent post, and have them e-mail you back a price quote. Good luck.

Meh, can't say I'm a big fan of the look. Because the cayman has that swoop in the sideskirt that leads up to its intake, the vertical intake grill looks funny without it, to me at least.

Now, in the Cayman Tequipment catalog I saw that you CAN order an intake grille in the silver color that the boxster's comes in. Porsche just kills me--what's stock on the Boxster is Tequipment on the Cayman.

So, if one were interested (meaning one liked the contrast of the silver piece as opposed to a body-colored one), one could find out how much that version is--it might end up being more economical than buying the regular one and having it painted to match the body.

I think one can spend over $2k to have the "silverish" accents on the Cayman! Kinda crazy if you ask me! For the $2k I think you get the mirror arm accents, side intake vents, front spoiler lip and the front intake grills in the bumper.

The Cayman vents seem to clash in my eyes.

No issues to day with my red side vents from Eric, although my car is a garage queen with 2K miles.

Suncoast Porsche has the Cayman Conversion Kit for the 987 listed on their web-site now for $107.24.
