Bruce has the chrome amber bulbs in his. Looks fantastic! His whole car looks fantastic!

Kram I ordered the chrome bulbs from the link you posted today. Thanks. I figured what ever lights i decide on the chrome bulbs will work in.
Also the center brake light in clear or smoked won't work on my car due to the aero kit spoiler. I actually started a different thread about that the other day. As far as I can tell the center brake light for the aero kit spoiler is the same part number as the center brake light on the 996.

Nice, I love the side skirts of Porsche's Aero Kit. I want a set of them for my car.

Just be cautious of your local laws. When I first got my Boxster I put a nice black trim piece that came with a clear cover on my license plates . You could read my plates plan as day, yet I got pulled over for having them on my car as unknown to me any cover over the plates are illegal. I only got a warning for it, went home and took them off. Wasted money and why the heck are they allowed to be sold at my local parts store if they are illegal?

I wasn't even moving. I was sitting at a stop light and a police car pulled up behind me. Soon as the light turned green on went his lights to pull me over.

I just put the red and clear on my arctic silver. Love the look

Yeah the clear looks very good. If you have not ordered them yet, this is where I got mine and the cheapest price I could find on them.

That is where I got mine also.

I prefer clear. That's what I put on my Arctic silver Boxster.

I would go with clear on silver as well... I was going to go with smoked on blue with mine and decided to go clear on blue and I'm happy with it.

Yes this was the ones I was planning on buying if I go with the clear.

As of now I'm still going back and forth on the color. So keep those pics coming. Especially silver cars. Thanks.

On a scale of 1-10.....how hard was it?

It's a "1". ;)

I can always count on you particlewave :cheers:

+1 on it being a "1" to install. hardest part is making sure the new gaskets get lined up right before tightening...

New top with glass. check.
LED lights with smoked lens. check.
Now the car doesn't look 19 years old anymore.
:cheers:


Here's what my smoked lenses look like at night. Sorry it's the only picture I have of the tail lights.
But at least you can see how I moved the "running" light to the outboard side, stock that light is on the inside.

Bumperettes
 

Have you thought of painting the bumberettes the body colour? I have an '03 S in Arctic Silver and I just recieved my kit of plastic primer, basecoat and clearcoat from automotivetouchup.com and I plan on tackling the 2 black warts as soon as the weather cooperates up here.

I've seen an '04 with the bumperettes painted and it really adds to the look on light coloured models. On black or dark blue they don't stand out as much so painting them is of little visual gain.

I like the black bumperetts and I my car is Aortic Silver

I like the black bumperetts too.

It's like matching the color of the buttons on your shirt with you're tie, socks and cuff links. All the accessories match. kind of like the tires, bumperettes and top.

I'm definitely keeping the bumperetts black as well.
