Very nice and cool work/ideas. I like it all.

Super clean car as well. Looks just like a brand new car.

Well done mate

PS: I've straighten my tailpipes using two huge bars. One prying up and the other prying down. Took me 15 seconds ;) Careful not to bend the edge (chrome bit) of the tailpipe.... do use BIG bars and make sure they are deep inside before putting pressure.

i noticed a little interior detail in your photo (on the right)...
the attached BOXSTER S emblem.

Not an easy mod...i had to do quite some research to finally stumble across 3M VHD tape, which i used to attach my Boxster emblem there (--> soft-PVC :ah:).

What did you use (on, well it looks like leather)...?

cheers

Hi Bran,
the emblem is brushed aluminium sticker, from ebay: it comes with a set of 2.

Ah ok, that explains it.

I used my "old" replaced rear Boxster emblem, which had no adhesive left, after i removed it with dental floss.

How did you attach those crests?

btw...
Your front bumper cover = Boxster
Your exhaust & emblem = Boxster S

anyways...cool work ilikeching

No need to throw the old Boxster trunk badge, put it on the front trunk battery cover:
