Thats a clean looking Boxster!

Very nice additions too, so much better without those bumperettes.

Looks really nice. And I've always been one of the oddballs around here...I happen to like my bumperettes. I think color (along with some of the other mods you've done) makes a difference: My Box is seal gray, and the exterior is stock. With your car, I have to admit it looks good without them.

not trying to hijack your thread

but your PM's are full, I was reading your mods and just wanted to know what kind of performance this one added for you? ****** "I also put in a cayman 3.4L 75mm throttle body with IPD plenum and Intake"

I am doing a 03 facelift on my 97 and just got the bumpers back this morning from paint.

Question do you have any pics of the 550 spyder rear bumper grille? I didn't realize the standard '03 had a grille or is this something exclusive to the spyder?

IMO it makes it easier to trap dirt there and it looks like it's a pain to keep clean as well.

sorry for those I havent responded to. Im in the caribbean so I dont get on my computer too often

anyways as far as performance mods go I have only done the throttle body, Plenum and Intake.

About the mesh grill its from suncoast and someone posted the link to it. Its a very high quality piece and its painted silver but I painted mine gloss black at home. It comes with small rivettes so I used a gun to rivett it in.

I also ordered the 2003 exhaust tips from suncoast just because I thought it would look good with the bumper and I liked the brushed look it had. I had to cut off my old tips with a plasma cutter at home and grind it down and put these on and MIG welded the insides. Yea I should have got an exhaust but didnt like any I saw and I really liked these tips.
