I got mine at getporscheparts.com but they’re at all the usual places. Suncoast has them. My local Porsche dealer does too.

It really is the best looking alternative out there and is OEM to boot. Thank you for the link, never thought to see that youtuber on the PORSCHE website.
PORSCHE is probably the most active and innovative car company out there, in terms of youtube sponsoring and cooperations.

I am going to have to get one of these I think. I have been looking at various double din systems but this seems to be a pretty good solution.

YUP...perfect!
I just ordered the plastic holder (thanks Fred) for the right hump from Porsche (single piece, universal for both sides =48€).
Now we just need the summer sun over here, spring sun was non-existent so far...and the speedster humps season begins.

Thanks Frank. Just loaded my ‘aggressive’ FSI tune and I’m super happy with the 3.8L performance  The rear spoiler is from Joe Toth in Canada. Do a search for him on FB and contact him by FB messenger to confirm details and order directly from him. Don’t pay attention if his FB page says the spoiler is not in stock, I think it’s like that all the time.

Better late than never....
Hello all,
I'm new to this party but not to the larger Porsche party. I just acquired 550 SE #0123 out of Colorado. Drove her home 1600 miles to NC in 2 days.
Happy to have this great example of an amazing car!

Hi Old Car Guy,
I'm interested in fabricating some front grills from my 2004 Boxster S that I track. I noticed you completed a similar project in 2017. Do you like the results so far? Do you mind sharing any details on how you designed the parts and completed the work? Thanks in advance.
Kurt

550 Bookpack
Hi, I recently bought Number 1951.. almost the last one! Does anyone know if the 550 has specific manuals for the car or is it the normal Boxster S manual? The PO did not include the service history or bookpacks so I don't know. Any help would be much appreciated!

Good question. Mine did not have any booklets either. I’m currently using 2004 Boxster manuals

Same manuals as a regular Boxster. There was a specific sales brochure for the car. I'll sell you one if you want it.
