rs 60 anniversary 986 project
 

I got into a small accident where i hydroplaned, spun out and crashed head on into a sidewalk... which didnt do much damage except to the under part of my front bumper... and always seeing the glass half full ... I'm takin it as an opportunity to do what I've been wanting to do to the car but never really felt the compelling need til the "accident"

having been enamored by the rs 60 987 anniv edition

i've decided to try to replicate the bumpers for my boxster s...

should be done in 2 weeks...but here are some teaser pictures....

diffusers will be tamed down of course...and was able to find some daytime running lights big enough to fit the bumper hole cutouts and look similar to the stock 987 fogs...

wish me luck!

wow. very cool. doing work like that is an art and takes talent. and it seems you've got it. cant wait to see this pan out.

I know a few Filipinos... many are very very passionate about cars. They're highly skilled whether they're mechanic or doing bodywork. Love to see how this turn out.

I like it. I'm no aerodynamicist, but it sure looks functional to me.

Looks awesome!!! Please leave the rear difuser as is, looks perfect.

Sam

**EDIT**
If you were ever considering selling this rear difuser 'add-on' as a kit, please let me know, I would love one!

thanks for the kind words,

just to clarify...I'm not doin the work myself guys.

I'm havin a fiberglass guy do it for me...just imagined the design...and got alotta photos of the rs60.... for him to copy

we molded the stock bumper and started adding pieces on...and hsavin off....from there...the guy's gonna make a new mold... make new bumpers and we go off to painting

hopefully will have more work in progress pix this friday

very excited...

Could you post more photos of the RS60 so that we can compare with your finished project pics when it gets done?

Regards, Maurice.

Does this mean you will be able to sell these front and rear bumpers???

Sam

yes sparker... because I will have the one of a kind mold...

but then why sell? when I've worked so hard to make my boxster s look different from everybody elses? haha

last thing you want is to see another one that looks like yours on the road...

and there's so many 986's in manila... it's crazy

schoir

for more pix

type the following:

"boxster rs 60 anniversary edition"

in the empty box under the google logo

=P

Keep me updated, would love a pair of these bumpers!

986 rs 60 anniv PROJECT COMPLETED
 

MERRY XMAS EVERYONE!

and as a treat here''s my 986 rs60 project completed...

sorry pix arent so good as they were shot in my parking slot...

but overall

quite happy...

just a bit of a gap in the spoiler area due to the fact that maybe the guy who made my bumpers measured them with the spoiler removed...

but i guess i'm kinda willing to overlook it....

found some led's to fit the bumper gaps too up front..... will try to get better pix outdoors during the holidays...

Merry Christmas to you, too!

That truly looks super nice, I wish I had the skills and time!

Boxster looks great! Love those bumpers. But the Cayenne looks like it's wearing the Scream mask.

got bored with my boxster.... so i decided to foil it matte white.... painted rims matte black... foil can be removed when I wanna return it to silver... but for now I'm pretty happy with it...

got inspired by the spyder.... =)

boxster s badge to be put back thurs after the foil sets...

also reconsidering whether boxster vent should be painted white or keep it in black?


what do you guys think?

sorry for quality of photos...used my bb torch

gosh, the white and resemblance to the spyder is amazing. My opinion the new look 10000x's better than the old one. Keep the vents black please, even better, cover it with a carbon fiber film! Day time running LED's perfectly placed. Boy oh boy I'm drooling with envy.

I'm not sure about a matte white (can't imagine how hard it would be to take care of it!) but none the less, great looking car.

Is that original front bumper of the rs 60?

thanks bro!

not an original bumper...i just copied it from the magazines... =)

Please sell me one of those rear bumper bars, I LOVE the difuser!!!!

Sam

decals redone....

will post better pix soon =)

as thinking of getting sideskirts... or havin some custom made again

any suggestions?

I think it looks real good. I like the flat white a lot. I've wanted to foil/vinyl mine for a while but haven't for lack of $. Looks like someone did a really nice job though
