Very nice! Loving those wheels! Look like BBS LM's? Would love some more info on that spoiler? Does it pop up? Looks very nice...subtle yet a little more aggressive!
Nice car!

Would you mind sending a link with the exact part you needed?

I'm seeing this number 996-341-053-17-M80 for the lower rear left/right control arm
and a few other parts labeled control arm links with different part numbers on Pelican.

Thanks, yeah they do look a lot like bbs wheels. Problem is that the previous owner put porsche logo stickers over the center caps which probably have the brand name on them. I didn't want to ruin any of the decals by peeling them back to get a peek. They have some minor curb rash and peeling clear coat mostly on the right side. I may have them refinished and will find out exactly what they are then.

The spoiler appears to be this one or very similar to this one:
Porsche Boxster Turbo Style Rear Wing

It does pop up and I think it looks a lot nicer than the stock spoiler. I'll try to get a few pics with it up tomorrow. If you click view additional photo after the link I gave you they have a picture with it up.

I found this one too on renntech. Looks exactly like mine when up.
