My new 986: First step, new top

[ChairmanRon]

Hey everyone,

I'm back on 986forum.com after a 6 year hiatus. I just picked up a 2003 seal gray Boxster here in San Diego. 81k mi, great shape. But whoever thought to order a seal gray Boxster with that Beige/Tan roof had no sense of fashion.

So one of my first steps was to head to Jim's Upholstery and put on a new GAHH top -- in black. What a difference. Here are the before and after shots. Sorry the "before" shot is so small -- it's from the dealer website before they took it down.

Please share your thoughts, or any other advice for my '03 986.
