paint the mesh black and it'd look pretty much like a turbo bumper.

What makes it look ricey is the silver mesh I think.
BTW Chris, any more track vids of the box you can up to utube? Very inspiring. Oh and nice driving.

I also dont like the mesh, way to over done. I have mesh in my bumper but its not near as overt as that. I da no, people think mine looks ricey, but I think it looks fine. And im VERY anti-rice. VERY! Its all your own opinion.

Made outta fiberglass.
You hit a parking block or something in the road, it's gonna shatter into a million pieces. Bye bye $$$
Otherwise, its OK looking. Have seen MUCH worse out there.

Of course, we'll have time to take a nap while you're outside pulling your bumper to clean the schmegma out of your radiators.

YouTube videos
Thanks for asking and the comment (blush)
Happy to cater to my fan base 
I added a few more videos from a track day in Laguna Seca two weeks ago.
In case anyone tells you that the Boxster is not a real Porsche, show them one of these videos where I take on (and pass) much stronger cars:
Ferrari F430 Spyder:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbCGbi-JPsA
Carrera S:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=na3tVdZlIKM
Carrera (as an additional bonus you can watch me almost loose the car in turn 9 - the one after the corkscrew)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZtcF9FDB08
Simply search for "chriszang" in YouTube and you get a list of the "whole works"
Not sure if I'll do any more track days this year, so this might be it for 2007...

I have a boomerang on to protect it. I want a lip, but I want the factory cup lip. But they are so expensive.

The first time I saw it, I really liked it. Since then it's kind of fallen out of favor with me. Can't explain it exactly but there is something "off' with it's dimensions/appearance.
BTW, I'm very jealous of the fact that you get to drive the track sans top.
