Kills Bugs Fast sill guards
I got these made up for my Boxster. I couldn't decide between a spoiler sticker or these and I finally decided on these. Makes a neat personalization that can only be seen if I want someone to see it. I'm sure the purists will flinch but hey, I like it.

A Porsche Purist does not have a garage gueen and although his car is usually clean, it will never win a concours. A purist knows all Porsches are meant to be driven and usually owns more than 1 model. Most purists use their cars as daily drivers and are most happy at high rpms on a twisty road.
Unless you are a Purist, you are not having as much fun.....

Tool Pants,
I've got one for you, but you never sent me your address. Send your address and I'll ship it out. Take care,
Mike

I was cringing as I opened the attachments, and I'm not even a purist, but they were well done. Nice !
Tool Pants, I'd buy one of those.

Sigma Pi,
I got them from a guy named Harvey Peck. I saw his sills on ebay and contacted him to see if he could do custom ones. They cost me $102.00 delivered. You can contact Harvey at harveypnp@comcast.net Take care,
Mike

That looked nice.
Harvey is the same one who sells the PnP rear storage speakers for the Box also.

Purist/enthusiast here!
My Boxster is my daily driver, and I'm not afraid to get it dirty. I have a classic 911 in the garage that I'm slowlly working on... I went up to Dallas on Saturday to check out a small collection of fine Porsches...
Yep. Purist/Enthusiast best describes me.
