If those painted bumpers are good enough for the newer Porsches and Boxsters then why not update the look of your 986? Porsche seems to think it looks better this way even with a black top or any other color. This is how they come standard now days and if they knew back then how good they would look, they probably would have come that way from the factory way back in 97.
