Ive gone full prototype!
I thought Id share my latest project i just finished on my 2001 S. When I first built this car I didn't have the ability to do metal fabricating or welding, so I decided to do something about it so this winter I took a 4 day class in metal forming and welding. As my project in the class I fabricated the side intakes for my Boxster. When I finished I took it to the Hershey Swap Meet and took 1st place in class in the Peoples choice concourse. Here are a few pictures along the way. http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1524707643.jpg http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1524707748.jpghttp://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1524707834.jpg

Wow! Impressive, to say the least. Approx. 1500 more photos required. Please :)
|
Nice
That will turn heads in any PCA event.
|
Well done sir.
|
Wow! That is awesome!
|
Very cool!
|
Damn! More photos!
|
that looks so good! more photos please!
|
Subscribed! Nice work! Is this the same car that was featured in Panaorama last year? You realize now you have to take the 4 day class in upholstery!
|
Fits perfectly with that front bumper mod!
|
People who can do body work: that's a true talent!
Are you going to mod the interior too? |

Thanks, can’t get enough pictures as there’s so much to take in.
It’s lovely. |
That is awesome. Well done!
|
Great job!
|
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing. :)
I'm curious, how are you handling any potential airflow issues with the smaller intakes? |

and again, Thumbs up²
Ah too bad you opened a new thread, but hey :cheers: In your case, it is pretty easy to like you mods. They are subtle, not right in your eyes and they don't unbalance the harmony. Close to the original and "spaced" with your personal interpretation. That is the design language I like. I am absolutely sure, that you thought about the following steps as well: :D - high resolution badges for the sides - high resolution sticker for the hood - front blinkers (amber film maybe, cut with that downwards tilt) like the prototype - water dipped turtleshell colored Boxster trunk emblem (there is a thread somewhere about that precedure) - And my2cents, I would keep the sunvisors either black or red http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1524843637.jpg |
outstanding, looks fantastic
