It does look good, I admit that.
On the other side it has to much a modified bodykit look also

Cost me about $1500cdn all in and it's fibreglass except for the lip. However, I would have put in yours I knew that I could have a urethene one for about the same price.

Awesome photoshoot!

Love the wheels. Where did you get them and how much did it run you?

I think the new Box front end looks pretty sweet. It has a little more Turbo look than the bolting on the actual Turbo front end.

I got them from a friend at work who owns Super Buy Tires....He gave them to me at cost because they are discontinued....Retail price was around 4k i got all 4 for $1400 No tires...

I love the Turbo bumper on the boxster... it reminds me of a Ferrari 360 Spider. Looks great. :cheers:

THe front view is very different then the stock look. Any other future changes?

nastyboxster 02-15-2006 09:40 AM

No further cosmetic changes plan, but still want ECU flash, muffler and bypass pipes. Maybe wheels like TriGem2k

i must say that looks much better than i expected. perhaps, the C4S lip is what did the trick.

too bad the silver didn't match very well. it's the toughest damn color to match.

Perfectlap 02-15-2006 05:21 PM

I wonder can you have silver paint from Germany shipped to the U.S.?

I didn't noticed there was a difference in colour until I took the picture. I still can't see the difference with my naked eye and I asked my friends whether there was a difference in colour and they can't tell either.

However, the picture from my digital camera is really obvious. I guess the camera shows the true colour that the naked eye can't see.

FYI, I posted a pic of my Guards Red '97 a while back and someone thought it was a rare color - digital cameras sometimes don't show the real deal. I thought the pic of the bumper was great. Nice machine and great upgrade! Eyes count more than an electronic picture! Post more shots of it.

It depends on the angle the picture is taken at. There is NO WAY paint will look the same on Plastic as it does on Metal. Even if u take a picture of a brand new car the bumper and body will look different from certain angles. That’s just the way it is.
