I too am now searching for front and rear bumpers, side skirts, etc. Ebay has a bunch of supposedly bolt-on dress up parts for our cars, but I'm skiddish to buy them because a lot are made out of fiberglass and will break easily compared to the plastic ones made by Porsche. And they're all expensive regardless of their composition.

I'd recommend saving up for repairs on a used Boxster before buying dress up body panels for it just after purchase... it would be lousy to have a great looking Boxster in need of a coolant tank or whatever and not have the cash available for it, huh?

Hopefully though, you'll find a 986 with low miles and some factory warranty AND a wonderful previous owner who cared for the car. These are out there if you look hard and are willing to pay more for a newer car compared to an older one totally out of warranty and needing worn parts replaced.
