First Car and Stance Porsche Boxster S Build!

[SheaMoose]

I think when I turned 16 I got my driving classes paid for.

You're a pretty fortunate kid.

Plasti dipped the wheels temporarily to see if I like it, I will get them powdercoated later.
Still need to clean the overspray.

I put the wheel on to see what it looks like. Looks fresh!
I think the black center caps compliment the black lugs nicely.

Good luck with the build!

You should be able to tuck some wide wheels by going low. I was able to tuck 996T wheels on a 996nb simply by going low and rolling the rear fenders. There is a TON of room on the front and you'll probably need some spacers for the front.

Thanks
That's awesome.
Did you have to cut the fender tabs?

My plans for the future are some nice 3pc wheels.
Roll the fenders and a minor pull if I have to.

I am talking to KW because they may have sent me the wrong coilovers. If they made a mistake they said they may send me the KW Variant 3!!!

They won't get back to me for a few days because of Christmas. Bummer since I won't be able to put the coils on now until I know the problem.

The adjustment knob they gave me doesn't work to adjust the dampening.
Has anybody had these coils with these weird knobs?

wow! Can't wait to see more progress

I like Boxters.

Here's some inspiration for you. Get it looking anywhere close to this and you'll be set!

Looking forward to see this one dropped
Btw it looks like the front bumper isn't fitting 100% in the middle, under the bonnet.

Thanks, I need to adjust it a little to get better fitment.

[milwaukeeandy]

should look much better once the coils go on, cant wait for pics

Agree with that, paint the wheels white, give it a drop and you've got a sick boxster

And please get rid of those headlights. This has potential.

white would better then silver with that yellow

when you putting the kw's on?

Ya, the original plan was to go gloss white.
Car is currently on jack stands..
