			That front bumper looks great! Beefy, yet OEM and subtle

			Tommy, I don't think anyone would be able to tell the age of your car, and for sure others would have a really hard time trying to believe that it is a '98 when told lol
 Nice work to both of you guys. Nice and "tidy" bodykit set-up and I think Charles did a remarkable job on your headlight retrofit. Looking forward seeing his other work on your dash
 
 CGT front-end attitude. Is it just me or the amber style headlight suddenly look really nice when retrofitted. I remember reading Charles saying the same but the more I look at them, I think Charles was spot on. I'd love to hear what others have to say

			Fred, I'd imagine that you could find a OEM kit on ebay or something.  I bought the car with the kit already installed.  I personally think this is how all boxsters should look coming from the factory.  But that's just me    |

			Yeah Fred that sounds about right.  I think it was even more as a factory option in 98   I would never pay that much, but if your friend has money to burn have at it lol.

			... if one opts for the Aerokit I (98655998400G2X+98655998300G2X) sideskirts + install set (98655998200): should be ~750 US$ @ Porsche dealer  
cheers

Thanks BRAN    
According to what i found on the web is factory option code XAA aero kit is the front bumper cover, side skirts and rear wing.  Cost $6250.  Of course that could be wrong.  But with all the options that came on the car and how much they added to the cost in 98 It makes me feel like I got an even better deal lol
