Tequipment for the 987S

Of course you can get the items seperately in the case of a claim - but Porsche will not sell them to you seperately initially, as the whole aero-balance of the car would be upset if you only fitted the items at one end.

Reading Porsche promo on the areokit, it does not say that it gives any increase in performance/stability etc etc (no mention as to the rear wing though) only to it's appearance.
Christophorus says ''The spoiler lips of the SportDesign Package visually ''push'' the Boxster, and thus provide an even more dynamic appearance''
and ''the automatical rear wing and the rear body with diffuser styling''
however and in all fairness, the artical does briefly mention ''the areodynaics have been refined, leading to reduced lift values''....
All abit airy fairy and wooly if you ask me.....
Still not worth £2484 + painting and fitting.

Yes, but I think you may be forgetting that the £1,100 is the difference in price of the standard wheels to the 19" Carrera's [

James,
There is an image of the front spoiler (in fact it'sonly the bottom lip) on the Porsche website under 'Boxster Tequipment' but it's not very detailed.
The rear does look quite good.
Personally I think that Porsche are up their backside by not offering the kit seperately (my approved Porsche repair centre enquired this morning) to the trade.
Maybe Porsche are trying to maintain the 987's visual perception by not selling the kit bit by bit - who knows !
Either way, I will not be buying the kit now, simple reason as it's too much for some styling kit.
The factory fitted front and rear bumpers only cost about £350 each, unpainted and not fitted.
Someones making money.
Would I buy one if I had the money - no
Would I buy an ex demo with the kit fitted at extra cost - no
Would I buy an ex-demo with kit fitted at low nominal cost - then yes, it will stand apart and I will not lose bucketloads come resale/trade in time.
