Just did mine. $180 for rears and sides from Rick Knab Suncoast. 5 minutes on the side and 20 min. on the rears. When I took out the original rears the gasket stuck to it and I didn't notice at first. I put the new one in without the rubber gasket but it was very obvious when it slid around. Make sure the gasket is installed correctly and doesn't slide off when you push the assembly into the body cavity. I've been looking at the stock rear end for 5 years so this change is very noticeable. Nice look and I have $250 painted bumperettes ordered in Artic Silver and ordered $15 "968" emblem that will replace the Boxster emblem on trunk - 968 beomes 986 when you mount it. Added new chrome Porsche license plate holder - $42. I'll take pic when complete. Oh yea - I had no idea I could do all these little things until I found this forum a month ago...
