Even aftermarket parts are more expensive for Porsches.. there is a company on ebay that sells GT2 front bumper for Boxster for 700++, same company sells modified front bumper for Scion for 143$... I don't think in our bumper goes 5 times more fiberglass...

Imagine a LED Headlight with Halo ring (like leaked 2012 boxster pics)... I think it would look soooo cool

Thanks

Yeah, i get frustrated at that. It cost money to make tooling for the first one.

But the manufacturers have to charge more a peice, to make up the difference in the quantity that is sold.

Plus, i believe there is only 1 aftermarket tail light. There is no competition, So they will charge higher.
