Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

do you guys think they will looks good on my car or not?
i am thinking about getting a pair, or possibly a updated bumper.
here is a quick photoshop of them on my car
yeah i know, I seen your pictures, i guess black doesnt really show too much detail except when its dirty, then you can see every little speck of dirt on the car.
THANKS, B!
If it's only for the looks, it really looks good...looking at the pix posted by dj, w/out the diffuser, it's kinda rear naked..hehehehehehe!
I think it looks totally cool and really great on your car especially because of the color. But like what other people say, I think they cost too much. Are they easy to install? Do you need to drill holes or anything like that to install them?
(P1.V1)/A1 = (P2.V2)/A2
now it makes a lot of sense, all i have to do is break down this formula and i'm good to go...hehehehe! j/k!
so, it does have a purpose on a certain cars but mainly looks for our boxster. not bad, better than 747 wing on the rear....

Djomlas,
Those look good on your car. If you keep the standard bumper without diffusers,what would look fantastic but is a little pricey is if you would put a Porsche sports exhaust on there, with the dual tips and dual pipes that show underneath the car from behind. The old style one, not the new style one. Take care,
Mike
It depends on what kind you buy. The ones I bought use the existing holes in the bumper and are a straight bolt on without drilling holes.
I bought them to complete the back end and block the view of the transmission now that my aftermarket muffler makes the rear end's mechanicals so visible.
Sadly, I have no pix to show anyone yet because the friggin' body shop I want to use said "we're swamped for two weeks. Don't bring the pieces in for a good long while."
Time for another body shop I think!
Here are mine, DJ. I like them. This isn't the best picture, but you get the idea. I also painted the bumperettes and put the twin exhaust tips on it like Mike mentioned.
