In all seriousness how loud is the race exhaust. I would like to talk to you about it...

Looks great. Don't forget the bumperettes. Easy afternoon project.

When I had my calipers redone on my speed yellow, I was tempted to go with the yellow caliper paint to emulate the ceramic brake option. I couldn't find any pictures at the time so I went back to red as a safer option. Seeing it on yours, I likey a lot.

Going to paint the bumperettes soon! How do I remove them?
I am going to get some coilovers probably around the Christmas time frame, can't wait.
Trimer, I will post a video up of the exhaust shortly so the forum can hear it.
It's pretty damn loud.

Looks good...are the wheels painted or just
plastidipped? Either way it looks really nice. The bumperettes have a screw (allen I think...been a few years since I took them off) at the underside of them that holds them on.

I had the fabspeed maxflo on my last boxster. great noise but I do not daily drive the car and really take it out as more of a stress reliever after work. Long drives typically dont happen either. My 356 Speedster had the loudest exhaust I could find. I just dont want to it to sound as if I am trying too hard to have a cup car...I want it to sound as if Porsche meant for that little car to sound like that. I cant get enough of youtube listening to supcar accelerations and the louder the ferrari the better. That is why I have been looking at the Fabspeed Race exhaust on my 03. So far all the clips I ahve heard all sound different! Looking forward to hearing yours!

Two allen bolts on the bottom remove the bumperettes. It's a 30 second job.

All you need now is the Dark smoked rear lights now
Then it's "Job Done"
After seeing yours I'm getting my Side Air intakes plastidipped black as well they look good.
Guvs.
