Retro bumper trim...still WIP...what a PITA it is to get the curves right, as there are only 10 screws, which are "integrated" into fixed spots on the 911 bumper trim...the Boxster would actually need 12 screws to adapt to the curvy 986 lines. I had to create aluminium inner counterparts, to be able to attach it without stressing the flexible PU 986 bumper cover too much...not 100% perfect, but I am okay with the result. Learned a lot again, I think i can change the front bumper on my head now
The back bumper trim & parking sensors will be a lot easier to install, hopefully.
Now I just need to get a Duraflex 986 spoiler lip somehow and the retro front bumper project is done.
