Looks great now, but I think painted bumperettes make a big difference (and mine were already black!)

Yours looks great too MN 986! I think this is the first time I've seen bumperettes painted black. They look fantastic.

Absolutley go with Arctic Silver bumperettes. I usually have a spare set laying around, but I just installed a set on a friends 2000 S.

How difficult and by what method is the rear defuser attached? What was your retail source? I like the look, congratulations. Bob

Sprayed. Along with the 3rd brake light. I wanted them darker but after I saw the way they looked on the car I was real happy, plus now I don;t have to worry about someone rear-ending me cause I painted my lights too dark. lol

Thanks Lobo. We have the same taste in wheels. I had always liked my stock Boxster 17's but when I needed 4 new tires this Spring I found a good deal on 18" 5-spoke replicas (the older Italian-made version). Here is a pic that also shows my new de-ambered Litronics and GT3/AerokitII front bumper. It was a fun Spring for the Boxster!
