Your vehicle looks great. The "icing on the cake" would be to add a set of black wheels. A clean one piece design would look nice ! Check out this members boxster.

wow

Sexy! can you tell me where and how much you paid for the 996TT front bumper? Is it fiberglass? How is the fit? I'm looking for a bumper for mine and I really like this one.

More than I care to think about. But please note that car prices here in Norway are insane. Bought this car for around $50k less than two years ago, so relatively speaking I have probably spent a lot less on mods than a lot of you guys.

Hi,

the entire front end is converted using only new OEM parts for the 996TT. It's a pretty long list of parts, including new fenders, wheel liners, headlights, bumper, bumper cover, etc. I'm not the one to pioneer this, so a search will reveal others who have converted their pre-facelift 996 and Boxsters (not as common) listing the parts needed.

Nice. I played with the thought. TechArt has some awesome looking wheels that would complement the look, but I happen to love the GT3/SportDesign-wheels and they still look like new. Big red calipers are tempting, though.

Hey Atle, very beautiful Boxster!

Can you tell me what you needed to do with the rear spoiler when you converted to the '03 bumper cover? I'd like to do the conversion myself but am not sure all the work / parts required.

Thanks!
