Fenders mounted, front bumper and doors hung for fitment:

Loving the color....awesomely-horrendous! In reality it is a much brighter lime green; camera can't seem to capture it.



Master cylinder installed along with custom ABS (or is that a stock ABS unit scruts?)

Is that an "in house" cup nose? Awesome build, still amazed by the value you are getting!

You bet, all the non-stock body panels are cup replicas. This way when I inevitably tear a body panel off, the new piece can be replaced quickly and will be a direct bolt-on. Plus the significant savings between Motorsports and replica parts is nice!

I don't need a Porsche parts number stamped on my body panels.

I use the same bumper ('99)- fit and finish is very good. Also the hood, doors, roof and rockers.

Shoot Dan an email at danaspesi@gmail.com.

He's more of a constructor than parts supplier, but it never hurts to ask. Be sure to tell him it's for a boxster; he's hung a ton of these of boxsters. High quality parts that are, more importantly, race car proven.
