Hofele-Design Takes on First Generation Porsche Boxster with 986 Speed GT Package

If you happen to own a first generation Porsche Boxster 986 and want to improve the roadster's looks - in the traditional sense of the word and not in the way some replica makers propose (i.e. this Boxster based Lamborghini), you may want to take a look at Hofele-Design's new Speed GT styling package.

The "Speed GT" body kit for Boxster comprises of a new front bumper with larger air intakes and optional LED daytime running lights, a restyled rear bumper with side air vents and a diffuser, side skirts and a big rear wing that is claimed to imitate the styling of the 911 series.

It is worth noting that the rear bumper can either be combined with the factory exhaust system or a newly available Hofele-Design sports muffler with a deeper sound.

Side graphics with the "Speed" logo and new 18-inch "Silverstone" alloy wheels along with LED tail lamps and headlight masks, complete the looks.

In addition to the styling updates, Hofele-Design also offers optional performance upgrades for the chassis and boxer engines.

Video Preview of Porsche Boxster-Based Bugatti Veyron Replica in the Making

While we certainly won't go as far as calling the Boxster the Fiero of the 2010s, thanks to its mid-engine layout and a significant drop in pricing of the first generation models, Porsche's roadster model is becoming increasingly popular as a donor car among replica makers. Recently we showed you a Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster clone based on a Boxster S, but now there's a new project car making the internet rounds.

This time the Porsche model will lend its hardware to a Bugatti Veyron replica that is being built as we speak by a man who goes by the name Orlando M. The replica maker explains that the car will not be put up for sale upon completion but will be used as a personal vehicle. The project is still under development but you can take a sneak peek of the process in the videos after the jump.
