Those sensors in back really ruin the clean lines of the bumper.

He use only glasurit paint which is originally use for all top end cars like Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo & Rolls Royce.
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.

Thanks for your kind comments.
As a matter of fact, I also coloured my hair to look 13 years younger !!
I was told it's the Carrera GT Titanium Silver, it's darker than the Arctic Silver. You can see from the pic that it's a very light shade of blue. I think the seal gray didn't have the blue shade.
I removed the urgly looking reverse sensors & add the C4S tips which I bid on ebay (send it for mirror finish polishing).
I always thought the "Park Assist" on a Porsche was about the most useless option they offered. Especially on a Boxster.
Those sensors in back really ruin the clean lines of the bumper. Good job!

did you have the under hood and trunk and door jambs done as well? What does a complete paint job cost there? looks nice in the pics, glad you're happy!
looks really nice..... i also liked the upgraded tips.... makes a huge difference in the look...... if you don't me asking how much did something like this go for?
i have an artic silver and might like something different.... maybe OB
Yes, I'll get some pic tomorrow (it's 4.30am here now).
This painter is the best you can find in the region. He use only glasurit paint which is originally use for all top end cars like Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo & Rolls Royce. It would cost about US$3.5K for a complete spray paint with color change.
You can get lower grade paint job for much lesser $$, but I won't save the money on a 996.
Well, about US$2,700 a year, add 10% each year for cars over 10 years up to 50%.
The road tax on my previous 1986 930 was US$4K a year !!!
I miss the Char Kway Teow.
P cars are rediculously expensive in Singapore. My Friend paid close to $300,000 Sing for a Boxster and no where to drive fast.
Tell me about it, I was caught speeding at 86mph at the expressway, charge in court with a total fine of US$700 & almost got my licence suspended !!
But we could drive in Malaysia at over 150mph & the traffic police cannot catch us cause their cameras & cars are too slow..... hahaaa.
Yes, here's some pics. Car is like brand new now !
WOW, they kept the option code sticker, good job. Must cost you a bomb in Sing to do such a paint job.
Then again maybe not since labour is cheap over there. A friend of mine has his car hand wash 5 days a week for $40 a month. YES $40 a month he pays a guy to come to his parking lot and washes his car 5 times a week. Is a different world over there.
