2003-2004 Pictures
 
Anyone have close up pictures of a 2003-2004 Boxster or Boxster S? I am looking for pictures to compare mine to as i just put on a 2004 bumper on my 2001. I need picture of the Wing (all angles) and Diffusers (All angles and inside). Just want to make sure i put my together properly.

Thanks
James

P.S. Maybe if people on this forum actually help me out it would be a whole lot faster :D

TriGem2k 07-18-2006 03:07 PM

No one owns a 2003 or 2004 Boxster on this Forum i guess. :(

TriGem2k 07-18-2006 05:16 PM

One more Bump before I go :D

i understand your eagerness, but a little patience please. 4 posts in one night? do you have a life beyond your car?

i'm being hypocritical because i went on a 3 hour drive to nowhere just because the weather was great.

i have an '03 S, and i'll see if i can get some pics on tomorrow evening

Thanks for the compliment

As much as I like the 03-04 front bumper cover update, I've been drooling over that GT-3 front end with the RS vents.

mtch 07-20-2006 07:55 PM

slow with the pics
 
I apoligize for being slow with the pics. Been busy. Union workers at the job are on strike, which means longers for me, and this d*%$ thesis is due in 3 weeks.

here are 2 more

been de-ambered all around since these

Perfectlap 07-24-2006 06:02 AM

very nice. Yes the GT3 bumper gives the car a longer wider look. But then you need side skirts too. Expensive but a total transformation.

some more random white pics(Gemballa)

Pictures finally here
 
Finally done with puttin on the 2004 rear bumper. I still need to make minor adjustments to the trunk and wing for perfect fit but i just wanted to let you guys see how it looks soo far....

P.S. If anyone has an idea of how to make the spoiler and the bumper fit better together i would love to hear it. If i can't figure it out ill have Beverly Hills Porsche take a look at it for me.

Thanks.
James

Will the defusser eventually have screens or something in the openings? Looks good so far.

The diffusers already have retaining strips around them, so no theres nothing else going in there. That part of the bumper is done. My only issue is with the stupid spoiler....

Q.. 07-25-2006 05:23 AM

wow looks 100% factory. Total transformation.
But what happened to the trunk Badge?
that area around the the tail pipes might look nice with
a carbon or mesh shroud of some kind and machined rings around each tail pipe like the kind that go around this Gemballa exhaust

Yeah thats what i love about it. its all factory and looks awesome. I took off the trunk badge i like the clean look. I was thinking about a 986 Badge or a 3600S badge.

Awesome! What is wrong with the rear spoiler and bumper fitment? How much did that go for? Very very tempting.

It does not line up perfectly yet. I am real anal about fitment of parts. The entire project cost me about $1300. This includes all the changes that needed to be made for the bumper to sit right.

Perfectlap 07-28-2006 08:47 AM

$1300 well worth it, especially if you had to replace the bumper anyway.

I always wondered how a simple PORSCHE badge would look on the Box on the bumper instead of the trunk lid, like on the 928.

Hey James,

Could you list the stuff(part no. & such) that needed to be changed out to get the bumper and rear spoiler to fit properly?

RandallNeighbour 09-22-2007 05:56 PM

Do the 04's not have bumperettes?

blinkwatt 09-22-2007 06:02 PM

The US-spec do. James had the Euro-spec bumper installed.

http://986forum.com/forums/members/der-geist.html

Der Geist Box has the factory US-spec bumper.

Bambino Don 09-25-2007 02:42 AM

That is a Hot car Q hope you replaced it with something crazy.

I prefer the 03 rear bumper, but would keep the 996 front bumper
