Thanks, fast1! Here's a new shot taken today, with the clear side markers installed. Much better look, IMHO, for any of the gray or silver Porsche colors.

I have a meteor gray metallic 987, and there's no question that clear side markers would be more attractive. I suppose Porsche believes that the colored side markers are more visible in certaing lighting conditions.
On my Cayenne S, I had the clear side markers installed by the dealer before I took delivery. That car is Titanium color, so just like your Meteor Gray it also seemed like a much better look. The dealer owed me a favor due to a few mistakes/glitches they put me thru in the sales and delivery process, so they offered me to choose something out of the Porsche Drivers Selection catalog as a good-will gift from them. The markers are a lot harder to install on the Cayenne than the Boxster, so I asked the to give me the markers, installed, as their "gift." At the time, that was worth at least $100, so it was a nice gesture on their part and I bought the Boxster from the same dealer.
