Rear cluster upgrade

Did a quick 20 minute mod that has transformed the rear end of my 2002 Boxster. Cost £132 inc of VAT from 911 Design in Essex UK. Great people even did a price match as promised on the website within minutes. Can't argue with that. Makes the car look so modern now.

+1! Really modernizes the look IMHO.

Now you have to do the clear 3rd brake light!!

Yes always another mod to be done. I found those lights are pretty expensive over here in the UK so is it worth doing it. Now I have seen yours I would say yes so no doubt it will be done sooner rather than later.

I think after September I will upgrade to a Cayman or Carerra 4s. Took one for test drive last week. I need to get one of those. ;-)
