Shaving the emblem sure makes cleaning and waxing a bit easier too.

I got my 550 taillights off of eBay for $159, but now I see that Suncoast has them for $249.95. I got mine when no one wanted them.

Dang, i couldnt get away with that, Do you think you can step it up a notch and get away with wearing dirty underwear inside out and backwards?..,

[QUOTE=ohioboxster]I know, it may snow but thats ok I will still be there! You know I took another board member for a ride the other day. I was hoping he would post his comments but I think he must be really busy. Meanwhile to help pass time I put this graphic on my windstop.

Comments form the passenger seat:

OMG!!!!

Seriously, Matt was kind enough to take me for a jaunt down I-77 and show me his handy work. If I have to say it in one word it would be Frickin'-Awesome!!!!! When that supercharger kicks in it is one sweet feeling. Really nice acceleration. It has just the right amount of get up and go to make the car near perfect. I am reasonably sure that the car is pushing well in excess of 250 hp. I was thinking how the one thing that my Boxster lacked on the track was a little more OOOMPH coming out of the turns and that supercharger would sure cure that problem. I think that with an upgraded ecu and opening of the intake and exhaust system that Matt's car would be the ideal Boxster. And the sound of that supercharger is pretty sweet too. Guess I am going to have to start looking for a way to add some additional power to my car. Thanks a lot Matt-your gonna cost me some serious $$$$ keepin up with the Jone's hah-ha!

Agreed. If mine were red, I would do the exact same thing... It looks great.
I bet that looks great on black too.

Thanks,
My only complaint is that I had to omit the 4th bulb on the bottom its the real small one. The lighs didnt have a hole for hat little bulb and I didnt feel like drilling one.

Looks great, OhioBox! But...hey...you look a little different in those pictures. Did you eat some funky rotisserie chicken lately or something?!?
