How to remove front vents

[JackG]

I realize this is a Boxster forum, but you can't post a picture that shows only a glimpse of that green Mach 1 in the background. I need to see a better shot.

Just an FYI.

Fading grill inserts was a TSB issue on the early 987's. The TSB# is W608. And would be replaced under warranty.

Seriously?! A TSB for faded paint?! That's a riot!
We live with various causes of catastrophic engine failure in our Boxster and there is a TSB for faded paint, wow.

I'll give a +1 on the bumper job, removal is not difficult, hardest part were those annoying little plastic fasteners in the wheel well liner. It really is much easier to put back on if you have another set of hands. I used that same tutorial linked above, I was actually able to do it with out removing the wheels, but I have skinny arms.

Kabel, there is a TSB too for a missing washer on the exhaust tip (W574). True, I am not making this stuff up!

Thanks! Very nice, I remember those seats and that shifter very well. Great color, too.

Is this thread totally hi-jacked now, or what?

Step away from the espresso machine. Now.

I may hold the record for hijacked threads. It's probably my ADD.

Doubt I'd have to remove the wheels... I have tiny girls arms afterall, hehehe.

Hm, who can I rope into helping me with this... Unfortunately I suffer from "Know It All Boyfriend" syndrome. IE, if I ask him to help me with something, he'll just do it all and never let me do anything, all the while talking to me like I'm the cute little 10 year old trying to help mommy and daddy do grown up things.

Anyway, I hate having to ask someone for help, because then when I **************** up, someone is there to see it all happen. At least if it's just me I can curse a lot and do my best to fix it without being embaressed.
