Kirk did a write up on his mods and the air ducts are one of them. The only thing that turned me off from buying them as soon as I saw them is that they'll pretty pricey around $400-$500 for the pair. I also remember reading it and agreeing with him that there isn't much to stop someone from just grabbing it and ripping it out. Not saying that anyone would, but who knows, people can be jealous/spiteful/dumb. Let us know if you end up getting pair and post a pic of how they look

Is this a complete replacement of the oem air vent or an attachment? I thought i read here once that Gambella make these, for some reason the kokeln look cheap.

Gembella did a slightly modified version of the oem intakes as part of their wide body kit for the boxster . The ones in question are exclusively from Koklen Racing.
