Picked up the car about a month ago and could use some help. I apologize in advance if my questions are stupid, naive or otherwise offensive......

1. Carpet is boxster red faded ugly, leather very good boxtster red. anyone aware of good sites for replacing carpet to black or deeper red? buying the carpet through Porsche is big $$. Help!

2. Non HID and want to replace low beam, high beam and fogs with something much brighter but not too blue. I can't find the bulb numbers and wattage in the manual. anyone know the bulb replacement specs and know of any great high end replacement bulbs? (saw Sylvania and PIAA so far but have no idea which really glow best). HID replacement kits look way too cheap....Porsche wants $3500 to go HID - NOT. Are any HID kits any good? or just go with stronger bulb layout? Help!

3. Has B&B exhaust. Porsche certified so I can't go too nuts....but is there a way to jump up the horse power without jeopardizing the warranty? Thinking air intake and old S parts (intake manifold, etc)? Any thoughts on this?

thanks for all of your help! Karl

I used Sylvania on my car, and i think thats what ur looking for. its not those bulbs that makes the light look blue. it just makes it look whiter than ur stock bulb.
