Thanks! I feel better! :D

I love your car with the body kit effects and Jakes engine. I'll bet it's an absolute blast to drive.

My '99 996 has the Aero kit, so it's the same front bumper cover as yours. I've scraped together a complete Boxster aero kit to add to one of my '99s, but I keep getting drawn to the 996 aero front cover instead of the 986 cover.

Appreciate the kind words . I like the subtle changes , you can see them but they don't scream racer which is good . I am thinking about adding a GT3 top vent in the bumper cover to kind of tie in the black spoiler lip and the black top . Or maybe twin ghost stripes I haven't decided . And yeah with 282 at the wheels she is a blast to drive . 😁

Beautiful car!
I have the exact same front, splitter and am about to mount the same side rockers.. :-)

What's going on in the rear, is that a modded bumper cover?

The rear piece is an add on from a company called GT3TEK . It came all black I had a local body shop paint it to match the car but left it black on the diffuser portion . In my opinion it really cleans up the look at the rear and adds a little sporty look to it . I also color matched the bumper pieces on either side of the license plate . The diffuser add on was easy to install , it came with 3M double sided tape installed from the vendor along the top edge . Clean your OEM bumper and pull about an inch of the tape cover off so it is visible . Align the cover and push it into place and slowly peel the tape backing away while pushing on the cover . When all tape has been exposed the body shop guys installed a couple of screws at the front edge behind the rear wheels . Been on the car for several years with no issues .

Nice looking Boxster. Glad to see you are enjoying the car! Nice to know that my Boxster and your Boxster have a small connection. You bought the bumperettes that came off my car. Enjoy in good health.

Good to hear our cars share some DNA :D I really like the painted to match bumperettes it makes them blend in vs. stand out .
