Your car looks great!
Love the Alpine/Boston sound but it would be wasted in my Boxster so I did that in one of my trucks. Your wheels look great too but... YOU ARE GOING TO KILL YOURSELF! (just kidding )

bobdogwv the car looks great!

I was just about to buy new bumper grills..but after seeing tonycarreon's I think I'll try painting mine first.

Any suggestions on the type of paint to paint the grilles? tonycarreon? or whipE350?

Thanks

I painted my grills with caliper paint because it dries fast and was a close match. I'm sure the correct way to do it is sand, prime several times and paint. I did remove mine from the bumper while it was off. I'll redo them some day when I have the correct paints. I actually only painted them because I had the bumper off for cleaning condensers and radiators and decided the grills could use some touch up.

Gorgeous. Love the car. The cherry on top, for me, would be a tan top.
