I feel that's more so with 996Carreras. Aero makes a much bigger impact on a Carrera than Boxster. With no aero a standard Carrera look pretty vanilla.
p.s.
Don't skimp on the front bumper by going fiberglass. Not worth a $250 savings. Not worth a $500 savings either. The fiberglass on rough roads, particularly during winter, lead to cracked paint. And on a rear bumper that's just looking for trouble if you ever park on the street. I have fiberglass side skirting and I'm not sure I would do it again. At an intersection I made a tight right turn around a high curb and had I been going any faster the whole thing would have snapped in two like the Titanic. Luckily you can't see the damage unless you get underneath.
I went with the fiberglass because I wanted the MK2 GT3 look (with the crease down the middle like a BMW sedan) but that was never made factory for the Boxster.
