In addition to Spike's questions, I am curious about your rear valance (apron). I don't remember ever seeing one with the fuel-injection year bulge and a wide gap rather than a one- or two-exhaust gap.

This one from above

The apron was most likely modified to accept the boxster-style exhaust tip. I just bought a dual cut-out late model rear apron on ebay & am debating about doing the same modification.

Probably one of the few places you can still obtain one as they are becoming hard to find & quite "pricey". Good luck!

I got mine from a guy in Florida from the Samba. It was $75 if I remember correctly. He may have more. There may be others selling as well.

Another source is Flat Four in Japan. The part number is BD-057 near the bottom of the page. The price seems to be ¥7,900 which is in the neighborhood of US$70. I don't know what shipping might be.

There is a stateside source but they were out of stock when I checked a few weeks ago. (I forget their name at the moment.)
