I've been lustig after this GT2 nose before I even bought my 2000 S!
I thought "wow add this and I have one really exotic looking car"
Is it the fiberglass/polyuerthane mix? I located one and they offered to paint the nose and the aerokit II sideskirting for $600. Do you think it will just bolt on after its been painted?

After doing perofmances mods to my previous car I'm really not in a hurry to go through all that again. It really transformed the car but this car is great straight out of the "BOX" So I'm hoping I won't have to lower it with this body kit just for the sake of appearance.

Anyone have any good links for lightweight wheels not made by Porsche?(my previous 15" Autocross wheels were 13 pounds, I think my 17" S wheels are 30 pounds!)

By the way JFmillr,
I agree 100% I ALWAY dreamed about a 911 1973 RS with Tartan seats, and then settled on the idea of a 996. But after driving a Boxster I'm not sure that I would give it up for a tin top and more ponies. I think a convertible 911 is blasphemy so really its a Boxster or broke for me. This season I'll be autocrossing my S against all the other 911's (my local club rules bump up the S one class) with a nice set of Victoracers or Azenis I'm curious to see how well I'll do against the Boxster's big brother.

With the mods that you've done, what horsepower gains have you noticed & was it worth the money. I'm looking to do a few things to my 99, but I was told by the local porsche race team that I'm better off getting a 3.4L or changing to the new "S".
