Just Finished upgrades to my 1998 Boxster
I just completed some upgrades to my 1998 boxster. I added a GT-2 front bumper and EVO spoiler, GT-2 aero side skirts, and a Aero-2 rear spoiler. Changed the stock 17" rims to 18" center cup wheels with p-zero tires. If you have any questions contact me at brians@abpsmedstaff.com I am planning an engine conversion next.

Nice job! The front bumper looks very good. I really like the black lip on the bottom.
Very shiny. What wax are you using?
Not sure I like the Porsche crests on the front side fenders.
Who will do your engine conversion? Are you going to the 3.6 or 3.8 route?

Excellent nice color interior!, looks completely different. Great look on those wheels. I too find the crest a bit distracting but the whole car is a head turner. Your exterior mods are well worth the price. You'll have no shortage of buyers some day.
Now all you need is a three spoke steering wheel and my tasty GT3 seats! Maybe painted bumperettes from bumperplugs.com? Trigem2000 Put the 2003-2004 rear bumper on his car and worked out very well, not cheap though from what I recall.
p.s.
that is indeed a great shine. Did you paint over the amber on the headlights or use some tinting film?

Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Like your rim
Just curious, where did you get the rims. I also like the black detail on the front bumper and lights, where was it done. The only thing I dont like is the small porsche emblem on the side, looks out of place. Other than that it looks great!

I got the rims from RH.com I can get the front EVO spoiler. I did the lights with 3-M smoke milar. I recently removed the logos from the side as I agree they were out of balance with the center caps.

Is that a fiberglass front? How is the quality? It looks awesome.

Really love those rims. The bumper looks GREAT! Don't care for the spoiler - but it's still pretty nice. Just gotta tell you though - the PORSCHE decal on the front window? Ricer city man. That's gotta GO!

Is that car for sale on eBay?
Starting to look like my twin. LoL!
Aren't those side the Techart Replicas not the GT2 Aero sides?
Those rims are RH they are a division of Racing Dynamics I believe.
