That picture of your emblem looks like it should belong in a Porsche catalog.
Nice job! |
Great pics, you're a talented photographer. I miss my midnight blue sometimes. When freshly washed, I think it's the best...the rest of the time, pretty much a pain in the ass :)
As I mentioned, offline to another recent 987S purchaser, I think you'll find running a low-windshield mount on your V1 (?) to ultimately be a better solution. I've found no noticeable difference between low-high in the Box, and it's certainly less conspicuous. Particularly since the sun flaps on the Box aren't conducively angled for attaching a clip-mount. |

As for the clear markers.. guess what the postman delivered today? Unbeatable price from Sunset Imports, $11.32/side. I thought about the painted vents, but they match the "fins" in the front bumper, and I'm not particularly emotional about the painted ones, so I'll probably pass. Colored crests I definitely agree with, would make for a great birthday present come August, just need to find a rich girlfriend.. ! :) The Boxster logo is not chrome, it appears to be just a gray plastic. Just snapped these with the new clear side markers, definitely like these over the orange ones! And yes, these really were taken in Cleveland -- it's not all as ugly as downtown! Regarding the V1, I'm surprised that mounting it lower would work as well, as I would have thought the rear view would be obstructed. I'm going to be hard-wiring it with a friend in the next week or two, so it will probably end up pretty high so I can hide the wires well. Thanks for the tip though! I haven't had a go at the cosmoline yet, have a busy weekend ahead of me, but will try to get that gunk off with your suggestions. Thanks again everyone, and for all the compliments on the photos, it's a real pleasure taking pictures of a beautiful car like a Boxster :) http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/4954/img3753zt1.jpg http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/760/img3764bd7.jpg http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/6210/img3762te0.jpg http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/2100/img3756qs6.jpg http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/5584/img3769dk8.jpg |
Congratulations!!!
I too have a 2007 987 and it is very, very difficult to stay under 4,200 RPM. I had my dealership keep all the plastic on, and not even wash my car, so that nobody at the dealership would screw up my paint. There was no cosmoline anywhere. Had the clear bra put on at the dealership.
Enjoy!!!!!!!!!! Michael |
