996 Headlight conversion
Hi all,
New to this site but have spent many hours looking through all the posts. Just purchased a 2003 Boxster S Guards Red which I cannot wait to drive. http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01/+_131395530017.jpg http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01/+_121395530081.jpg Looking at what people have done to their cars I was hoping someone could tell me what work is involved or a possible guide on converting the front end to a 996 as pictured below: http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1395529807.jpg Love this example of a boxster... <3 Hoping to get this done in the very near future with some other tasteful mods to the interior too. If anyone has any knowledge on this I would love to hear it Many thanks, Richard |
This is a really tasteful mod but I guess really expensive.

Jeeeeesus....
Thanks for the reply The French Dude... did NOT realise the extent of this job. I wasn't sure whether it was a case of headlights wiring loom modified and bumper straight on but now I think this modification will have to wait... a long time... very expensive mod. I think I may just change the front bumper with the standard lights, but unsure which fornt bumper looks the best Cheers |

This is the front end look you need ;
Install yourself for $355 :eek: I really hate to be such a whore for these projectors, but I don't think any other headlight options for the 986 even come close. |
Nice box particlewave !

Another option is to look for an OEM 996 GT3 front bumper cover . That's what I did and it is a straight bolt on no fitting required . I like the factory stuff because it fits and is made of poly so it is flexible . Bumper covers like Fred's ( great looking ) are fiberglass , nothing wrong with fiberglass but it easily cracks with small bumps/impacts . OEM is quite $$$ vs fiberglass so that has to be considered . Bottom line go with what YOU like and enjoy :cheers:
