Default boxster dropped, spyder splitters installed

Hi guys,

Finally lowered the car with HR springs car only have 14k miles so I went to this route, btw thanks to scottshoe recommendation had Sonic MS installed them, great guys and customer service.. really hard to see the splitters only iphone4 pics here.. The ride is quite the same as my old CaymanS, had HR before and no complains.. after I rack miles up or if I keep the car longer than I normally would, i'll install coilovers..

this is the cheapest route... hr springs ~$300, labor $500.. Spyder splitters $30..lol

Alex your Boxster is looking great. For some reason I thought you had Spyder wheels.

Very nice modifications.

Hey Alex, what year car is this? I have an 06 and wonder if these would fit. Also, these look a little more subtle than the RS60 style splitters, obviously the cost is better, though. Do thse seem to you like they extend enough to make a difference aerodynamically? It's a little hard to tell from the pictures (which are great, by the way), but they seem to extend more down than forward.

Jim
