New 2000 Boxster Owner
A couple days ago I bought my first Porsche a 2000 Boxster Base with tiptronic transmission. I have always been a Camaro/Mustang person. I am the third owner and it has 88k miles on it. I bought it with the intent on doing all the service myself with the help of a manual. The previous owner to excellent mechanical care of it racking up close to 7k in repairs in his 3 years of ownership including a transmission rebuild. There are quite a few cosmetic issues that I will be addressing. I have rips in the leather, worn steering wheel, Yellow headlights with baked on protective film that has probably been on for 14 years, and spider cracking on front bumper cover. For the seats im going to seal the rips with gorilla clear repair tape and place Coverking Moda Letherex Seat covers on them. I spent 3 hours yesterday scraping the protective film off the headlights and I will be restoring them with the mothers kit tomorrow along with Claying, Polishing and waxing the paint. I think it has the potential to look great after I put some TLC into it.
