While were throwing the names of German "tuners" around, permit me to indulge in some further immodestly, and tell you how Mr. Fatthauer at 9FF was also kind enough to make me a custom cutback exhaust . The only known one for a 986 boxster in the USA . In addition, some other folks in the "Fatherland", M&M Exhaust (I'm sure that you've heard of them as well), were also kind enough to fabricate a custom set of headers for my vehicle along with HJS tri-metal cats. And, lest I fail to mention the folks at Hamann who were equally gracious to supply me with their bodykit . Although, given the crudeness of it, I'm convinced that a bunch of kids at a German vocational school actually made it for them .

I was being facetious. In any case, given the prestige behind the Hamann brand, one would expect that a high level of precision and attention to detail would go into the making of their body kits and aero parts . That was hardly my experience . Especially with the front bumper .

Ok. i understand. I will agree, not everyone has a good quality, when you see their products in person. material from the bumper is glasfibre? i know this problem, but you can believe me, our works and quality standarsd are absolutely the highest!

I definitely agree that the TUV certified FRP parts from Germany are far superior to a lot of the domestically produced stuff here in the USA . Regardless, however, most of the FRP stuff can be pretty crude in it's original form .

p.s. I have H&R front and rear sways on my vehicle . Does that make me any less of a bastard in your mind ?
