Menoporsche Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 I think it might have been introduced with the facelift, 2003 on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATM Posted March 26, 2022 Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 I think they call this maroon on their site. I think it would look OK on a red Boxster. https://www.car-hood.co.uk/986-boxster-glass-upgrade-h809 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
½cwt Posted March 26, 2022 Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 There is a factory 'red' hood, colour code L02 on the 987 and L25 on the 981 but they are not a bright red like the one above, more a deep red/burgundy colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would beg to differ, at least on my phone they look similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is most certainly RED! Brave indeed. Then PO of my car though going from black to blue was adventurous, however I think it works well with Arctic Silver and my grey interior. We've cone a long way from Condensation.... apologies to OP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my guess is they don’t, and driving round with two non-matching reds is “brave”, in the Yes Minister interpretation of the word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why they need to match - genuinely not just arguing for the sake of it Black with black roof doesn’t match but looks good Lapis with blue roof doesn't match but looks good [Other] blue colour with blue roof doesnt match but looks good Can't think of any other combos right now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daz05 Posted March 26, 2022 Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 You should both be ashamed of yourselves for caring what it looks like with the roof up, that is for other people to worry about when you are within 5m of the car it should be down! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianJ Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 I still have my original 986 brochure for the 2003 facelift model with the glass rear screen. You could get the hood in 3 optional colours - black, graphite grey or metropole blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
