Wanted Boxster Clam Shell Cover
I like to buy one of these covers, any color is fine (black an instant hit). Please e-mail at Marksmansales@comcast.net or call me at 253/951-8000. Thanks Mike

That is my car. They are called the humps or speedster covers. Mine are the original factory version but Porsche has come out with a new version - but they all look the same.
There are aftermarket versions around. I have not seen them, but they do not have good reviews. There is a factory set on ebay. |

Thanks so much for all your help! I purchased one today for $750. Meanwhile I found out that quotes from one Porsche Dealer to another will differ greatly. I received quotes for this speedster cover ranging from $950 to $1153!

When you get them inspect for damage since Porsche does not package them well. They come in a very large box. My friend owns a body shop and I had them sent directly to the shop. Have them match the paint to your car, not by just using the color code. My friend pointed out I had 3 shades of silver, so he matched it to the clamshell since that is where the humps sit.

just out of curiosity but can you place the cover in the car when the top is up?

Top has to be down. Included with the humps is a clip which deactivates the electric top so it cannot accidently be raised.

I am sorry I meant where do you put the humps? Do they physically fit anywhere if you have to put the top up.

They fit in an empty rear trunk.
