You know, as ridiculous as I think it is, there appears to have been some legit fabricating skills used with this car.

Agreed, bad ad, but that's far from the worst boxster kit I've seen, the front looks great!

From the look of the house and neighbourhood the owner looks like he has money and appears to have done a nice job on the body work. To each his own I guess. Interesting it only has 6K miles on it.

Depends on the craftsmanship of the work but looks decent in the pic. Not my taste but not one of those awful attempts that only looks good to the eyes of the owner.

Funny, recently someone posted an MR2 Spyder that someone stuck 30 Porsche badges on to make it more 'Boxstery'. It looks like this guy has tried to make his Boxster look like an MR2 Spyder.

The Boxster Left, MR2 Right:

I can't seem to access the CL right now but if this car is in FL I've seen it, it looked pretty good in person as I was driving by...

No fake 3rd intake in frt bumper cover, black brakes, single exhaust, black gauges. A base "upgraded" to S via an additional letter on the trunk.

But I'm sure it's 100% OK.

EDIT: and the S is too far away from Boxster

Trim under the passenger airbag does not line up.

Stay away.

That's normal on a 987.....that's where the cup holders are so that whole piece is hinged.
