Couple of thoughts
I really like what you did with your car. The only things I would do differently would be keeping the entire headlight assembly, side markers and taillights unpainted. So that you have some contrasting gloss kinda like the wheels against the matte black body of your car. Just my 1 cent! Great job though nonetheless
Happy Thanksgiving everybody.

Turn signals?
Love the look and think chrome wheels would look just the berries on the car. I have a question about the headlights that look like they have been painted the same color as the car. How does your turn signals work? By the looks of things you are totally illegal as I don't see how a signal could be visible through the paint. Please clue me in.

front trunk has... well....
Very funny.
Kirk "MB SLK350. We've test driven one and looked them over pretty carefully. They're a retractable hard top. When you put the top down you get almost ZERO room in the rear trunk and the front trunk has... well.... an engine in it!"

I give you props for trying something different, especially with a silver Boxster, lord knows there are enough of them on the road.
The more I look at the pics the more it grows on me. The main issue I see is that the wheels and tires are not aggressive enough to match the styling of the car. I would upgrade to larger 18' wheels at a later date and then I think you will have a very nice unique car. If you want to stick with the wheels you have then I would lower the car to give it a more aggressive look.
Just my $-.02
