Heiko - That looks great! I am getting mine back from the paint shop this week and plan to install it soon. Your pics have pushed it higher on my list!

Well, I finally got the Boxster out of hibernation today. It doesn't really feel like Spring yet and there is still snow on the ground, but the roads are clear and I couldn't wait any longer!
I just installed the 'turbo style' side vents and I really like how they mimic the horizontal bar in the AerokitII front bumper openings. When it warms up a little, I will install the GT3Tek rear diffuser I bought a few months ago,,, just got it from the bodyshop today and it looks great.
'Permagrin' is back!

Changed left front radiator hoses. Top and bottom. Front and back. You need more than that special spring clip tool (although it is very helpful). It's a bit too big to fit in some of the tighter spots. I found long long handled pliers with an 'L' shaped or curved bite worked when the spring clip remover didn't fit.
Right front already done.

Drove it the 50 miles out to Fontana Speedway. 1st time out on the freeway with light traffic since the new intake system & DME remap. WOW the 3.6L likes what I've done, seems to get smoother the more miles I put on it. Beautiful day, put the top down later. Just when I thought this car could not get any funner it has!

I parked it in its new home in the garage of the house I just bought in FL. Closed yesterday the 10th.
Next project... Car wash, followed by oil & filter change.

I went for a cruise in the country, and stopped by a film location for the Hunger Games, about 4-5 miles from my house.
Took this photo in front of one of the old mill houses used in the film.

1. I replaced the passenger side door lock and micro switch. Finally fixed the problem with my window not dropping when I open the door!
2. Added a chrome bezel to my gauge cluster. It is a really nice upgrade to brighten up the interior.
