Over the years I've developed an "automatic" upgrade on any early Boxster I buy.

- Spacers. 15mm in front, 20mm rear. This fill out the wheel openings quite nicely w/ factory 17" wheels.
- Exhaust tip - Eisenmann. Was a factory option on the earlier Boxsters. It simply slides on over the existing tip and gives the appearance of a beefier exhaust. Simple bolt on. There's several on eBay now from $50-$100.
- Clear corner markers w/ an orange bulb.
- Clear headlights from a later 986 or 996. Get rid of the scrambled egg look.
- Later model (2003-2004) red/clear taillights or solid red 2004 550SE taillights (my favorite)
- Speedster humps can give the car some character too.

All the above give a nice refreshed look to a '99 and the wheel spacers give it a more aggressive stance.
