If you have ever been hit in the rear, you appreciate the bumperettes. Get then painted body/bumper color and they fade into the background.

I've had a valet in NYC back my Boxster into a concrete garage wall right as I was watching him. Minor mark on my painted bumperette, but glad I had them for sure. The new Boxsters don't have bumperettes anymore though.
