I wonder how it would look with black shrouds and yellow painted louvres...?
Not sure, like a bumble bee maybe ?

You'd probably like it a lot. The grilles (or "strakes") are a neat detail of the Boxster, and in their natural black are rather hidden. I painted mine silver recently. See my thread about it.

So as is, its egg yolk yellow with a black top, mirrors and black wheels - sure it looks like a bumble bee, what else is it going to look like ??

I'm sure dbear61 can photoshop a pair of wings onto the top for you.....
