Hey, don't get me wrong, I wasn't knocking your car at all. I think your car looks amazing! I don't think I've ever seen another Boxster in that color and you're certainly making the most of it. I do like the style of your MOMO wheel, but I'd prefer an Airbag. I would probably have looked at the RAID Airbag wheel.

But, in my case, having a Tiptronic, I'm pretty much stuck. Because there are only a few aftermarket wheels which allow you to keep the 'Manual' mode, the OEM Sport 3-spoke wheel is fine by me.

Sorry about hi-jacking your thread with the discussion of the Tiptronic aftermarket steering wheels, I've moved it to a separate thread

Hey DJ,

Does it bother you at all that you have such a pretty car all nice and clean and modded with nice wheels......driving right on a pile of salt?

Very nice! The smoked sidelights are an improvement too.

thx for the compliments guys,

JCL12, salt and all that doesn't really bother me, summer or winter, i hate driving a dirty car, so once it gets dirty enough i wash it hehe, simple as that plus its got a lot of wax Zaino on it so nothing really sticks to anything, wheels or car, pretty much hoses right off

shaman1204, the light by the mirror is my radar detector
