Subtle, understated. What's the big deal?

Just a matter of taste, or "what is art". The kit is available if you want to show that kind of love for your Boxster:

Nice price on a 2006 with "water damage" due to the drain ports plugged.

Well you know the ole saying. One man’s junk is another man’s jewel. I like it. I like it a lot.
To illuminate. I am morbidly obese. And there is not a better car for the obese than a Cruiser. I also love coupes. Altogether we have the perfect car for ole Martha.
I called but alas. It has been sold.

A quick drive over the speed bumps on my road would soon strip all that crap off the bottom of the car!

It's the equivalent of buying a v6 mustang and putting hood pins on it, but even worse because excessive modification looks better on muscle cars then these.

Wonder if the seller is friends with this ad that keeps popping up on my Las Vegas CL.
