stupidget Posted November 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 I might sand the S down, spray it red and see what it looks like. At this rate the amount of sanding that the S is going to get there'll be bugger all left of it 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
½cwt Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 1 hour ago, Davey P said: After seeing the Photoshopped versions, I stand by my previous comment of silver "Boxster" and a Red "S", that looks awesome I am clearly a man of impeccable taste (and no comments from Menoporsche required, thanks very much!) Well, you do keep setting them up for @Menoporsche and he doesn't need much encouragement.... To be fair you must have some taste or we're all in trouble as you have chosen a Boxster too.... I'm liking the red 'S' also, but just wondering if it is getting a bit VW for all the red and blue combinations of TDI over the years to designate which power output option a particular vehicle was.

detail1 Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Went from silver with a red S, to all black and settled on the red S again 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupidget Posted November 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 Think I’ll respray the S red and see how it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menoporsche Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 To see how it looks, red electrical tape would be simpler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a red S looks like you are trying to hard 🤣🤣🤣 On the car, chrome or a dark grey, the black looks a bit stark. When in doubt stay stock, dont ask us lot for advice 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topbox Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 3 minutes ago, ½cwt said: Then again that is good advice @Topbox I've been trying much to hard lately, just had my calipers painted bright yellow, so you can see I'm an expert on the subject! In truth I'm quite a fan of the stock look but my calipers were almost 50 shades of grey and needed a good refurb so I thought I would go with a colour that would contrast with the body colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John2000 Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 I must admit I would paint my S red if I had one it looks good to me but it's very subjective. I painted my Calipers red and I've a 2.7 but never pretended its 3.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTM520 Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 Has anyone found a close colour match for the original "titanium" colour of badge on 1st gen Boxster's? Although might be cheaper for me to buy new rather than buy used and re-spray. I want any badge back on...so people know it's an S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newhart Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 I debadged mine because the B was broken. I rather like the debadged look, and although it is an S, it's so modified that the letter is moot. Catch me if you can! 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks pretty cool, and it will be easier to clean the boot without the fiddly badge in the way as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
