so i recently did a rs60 bumper for my boxster



BEFORE



AFTER
















but in the spirit of summer...and because i recently saw a spyder here in manila... i decided to foil the car matte white just for the season...

loving the look and it sure feels new again

gonna adjust porsche stripe to make it thinner and sleeker...also painting my boxster s badge matte black

just need your thoughts on weather i should paint the side vent matte white as well... i feel like it will be cleaner... what do you guys think?


sorry for quality of photos...used my bb torch







here's the rest of the fam

Looking good.

Agree the side stripe needs to be toned down.

I think the side scoops look good black.

Enjoy your "new" car.

Looks cleaner same color as car.

Is the stripe to let people know what kind of car it is?

cretinx

need sideskirts to flow with the front bumper/rear skirt

GPReyes

yeah sumflow i thihk that's the idea with the sidestripe for the spyder...cause some people might think it's a kia...

cretinx... thinking about sideskirts......just don't have a design in mind...any suggestions... i just copied my front and rear bumpers from the rs60 anniv 987...

there are a billion 986's in manila... i think i've succeeded in making mine a little different yet still keeping the lines and spirit of porsche...

getting the car back tom... will post new pix soon

cretinx

I believe better bodies makes some sideskirts.

GPReyes

i pretty much can have anything made in fiberglass...the way i designed these bumpers...was wondering what sideskirts would flow with them... any pix?

+1 on both counts.

personally, I think the car would look better in white with silver wheels. I only like black wheels when the whole car is black. Then I would do the Porsche decal in silver to match with a silver hood crest.

The biggest visual change in my car came when I did the side skirting. Made it look lower without having to actually lower it.

I'd love to do a matte black wrap on my car. Too bad we don't have Philipine prices.

p.s.
Congrats on Pac Man.

I actually like the matte black wheels....for me the biggest visual change are the front and back bumpers =)

they really set it apart from the others 986's

i tend to agree though that i need sides just to make the lines flow more...not neccesarily to make it look lower...i'm quite pleased with the stance...

decal is done... here is just an initial pic =)



pacman rocks... he needs a better challenger that wont run away next time.

yeah in that picture matte black matches matte white pretty well. Have you seen the 987 mirrors for 986 in the aftermarket? I might have to consider those myself.

p.s.
Mayweather. I can already see the American flags flying. big money.

+1 on your new look. It is sharp!! keep the wheels black they look stunning.

Byron in MS

WOW!!!! That is amazing!

I am confused by this quote; "i decided to foil the car matte white just for the season".

Is this just a wrap or a full paint job? Do you own your own paint shop?

GPReyes

Byron its a white matte sticker... foilacarmanila.com

i'm thinking if i should reshape the headlights using the sticker...so it looks a bit more updated...someone on the 986 forums did that with black tint on headlights on a black car... looked cool...thing is i think i'll lose turn signals unless i put them into the bumper vents as part of leds...

just some new snaps from the weekend...havent had time to get out the good cam...
