Thanx for the ideas and compliments! Im really considering a gt2 bumper, or even the tech art! I just havent seen a car with my style and those bumpers! I only want to buy one bumper so ima just take my time and get it right the first time! What do you think about the blue high beams??

The blue high beams look good, especially with the black, they still look right so you must have gone with the right light output, 6000K?

I think FLY996 has the TA bumper and his car looks great.

love it! but then again, it reminds me of our black 996 that we had done a couple of years ago! so, of course, i like it! =) the 3m film over the top is a must, otherwise, you'll get rock chips. i'm just speaking from experience on both the boxster and 996. it's a pain to re-do them!

nice job!

Boxster Girlie,

I know that this is an off topic question, however, where did you get the smoked headlight "eyelids" for your boxster ?

Thanks,

Johnny

^^they aren't eyelids. they are painted, just like the ones on the 996 and the OP's. they are painted, and the had a clear coat applied, and then the 3m film.

Wow, the pictures are awesome! Talk about the cheapest face lift ever! I'm contemplating doing this. It makes the car look fresher, rejuvenated!
Thanks for sharing!
