Thank you

You made my day!
but my car doesn't running right....

I guess too much air and fuel from the ECU turning .......running too rich
Every time when I went high RPM and shift up, blue fire came out from my exhaust....which is really BAD

Do you have a web link to where I could purchase the front bumper?

I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other but it does make the rear end of your Box car look very busy.

I do recommend that you get your bumperettes painted. They caught my eye at very first glance.

BTW, pics look like they were taken on Treasure Island under the bay bridge. Right?

Thank you for the opinion

Those two bumperettes used to be silver for the boxster S. I painted to black.
I do agree with your opinion. I should paint it back to silver

here is a pic before I paint it to black

Yes, those photos were taken on Treasure Island

Your work looks like it is of high quality, good job. Part of the fun of our cars is making them our own. I know it is not realistic, but it would be fun to see what the air-flow patterns are like with the wing in a wind-tunnel with smoke trails.

I have often wondered what smoke patterns looked like with our stock cars with top up, top down. That is, how smooth or laminar the air flow patterns are. Anyone have links to pics of such,

Thank you for the opinion

You almost made me CRY by" Part of the fun of our cars is making them our own"

You have a really good website which recorded all of your automobile history.
I should follow up too

Have a space where I can record all my happiness and sadness of my hobby. also record what I learned from every steps. The most important thing is to record how many times I have cut myself by making things happen.

Thank you

I don't know... usually I think that painted bumperettes look better, but this is one case where I prefer the black. His car has a good theme going in contrasting silver and black. The body is silver, but the rims, air intakes, rear trunk exhaust thingies, rear lower diffuser, and bottom section of rear trunk are all black. It kind of goes with the color scheme to also have the bumperettes in black then.
