Boxster Widebody Project. Photos.

Hi,
I thought a few guys might be interested in a custom Boxster conversion/update/modification that I'm doing. These are a bit blurry because they were taken at night... but thought some guys might find them interesting. More photos to come soon. Rocker panels will be arriving any day! Will start working on the GT3 (Cayman style) wide-body rear bumper next week. ;o)

Looks like the rockers will be arriving tomorrow. VERY difficult to purchase. Took me 3 months of begging to be "allowed" to purchase them. Very cool guy though... as they are finally coming/arrriving ;o)

Forgot to mention... parts that are being installed are all carbon fiber composite. They are fitting pretty nice, and look pretty stunning on the car in person. I need to clean it up a bit and take some nicer photos soon. Stainless headers & exhaust are just around the bend, as well as nicer (19") black rims, H&R coils and probably a few other goodies. The goal is to have this car sitting low & having a much more exotic look.

NICE!!! this is what i had wanted to do with my boxster as well, but it's the cost of the labor/installation/and paint that is the catch for me. aghhh!

very cool pictures! can't wait to see the end product!

best wishes!!!

The rockers... (showed up today). ;o) Kit is partially a tuner kit from Germany (guess which?) and the parts have been very hard to get. Lots of waiting, emails and waiting some more. Some of the parts we are having to fabricate at my shop. LOTS of work... you wouldn't believe. But looking cool so far. I'll keep the photos coming.

Those rockers were for a 997. We'll be altering them (about 4 inches longer) to fit the Boxster.

I'm aiming for this kind of "look" when it's finished. Thinking of doing a really wild color.
Any ideas? Black rims for sure...
