CONVERT YOUR 986 PORSCHE BOXSTER INTO A NEWER STYLE 987 SPYDER!

WORKS FOR ALL 986 BOXSTER MODELS 1997 - 2004

The first and original 987 Spyder conversion look for all 1997 to 2004 986 Boxsters!

TuneRS Motorsports has developed and manufactured in-house the first true 986 Boxster Spyder kit for all 1997-2004 Boxster models! This kit was put together using only the best materials possible. It's lightweight material, strength, durability, look and overall finish cannot be matched. The spyder lid, spoiler and third brake light support are made from high quality fiberglass, prepped and given show quality finish when completed. Not only are you getting a true spyder look, you are also having substantial weight removed from the vehicle as well.

This 986 Spyder kit fits directly in place of the original convertible top and rear decklid, giving it a true Spyder look. This is a completely functional lid, it seals in place where the original parts used to be. The Spyder lid was molded directly from the 987 Spyder, with exact specifications from the original Porsche part. It is almost impossible to tell it is not a real Porsche part.

This kit is also completely reversible. There is no need for cutting, drilling, welding or modifying any part of the body. All of the parts go mounted into original mounting points from the parts that are removed. The third brake light and rear spoiler are also options that can be added or removed at customers request.

- Fiberglass Spyder Lid

About Hardtop & Targa Tops

Hardtop & Targa Tops - Structural Styling & Weather Protection

Hardtops and Targa tops provide essential structural rigidity, weather protection, and exterior styling for Porsche Cabriolet and Targa models. Designed to replace or upgrade factory roof systems, these components improve cabin refinement, enhance vehicle stiffness, and deliver a cleaner, coupe-inspired profile.

At Design911, our Hardtop & Targa Tops category features precision-engineered solutions for Porsche owners seeking improved durability, performance feel, and long-term reliability—without compromising fit or aesthetics.

What Do Hardtops & Targa Tops Do?

Hardtops and Targa tops enhance both structural performance and everyday usability.

Core Functions:

  • Provide weatherproof protection from rain, wind, and noise
  • Increase chassis rigidity and driving stability
  • Improve thermal and acoustic insulation
  • Enhance exterior styling with a coupe-style roofline
  • Protect the interior from UV exposure and environmental damage

These components are ideal for year-round driving and performance-focused builds.

Why Do Hardtops & Targa Tops Fail?

Factory and ageing roof systems can degrade over time due to mechanical and environmental stress.

Common Failure Causes:

  • Seal deterioration leading to water leaks
  • Warping or cracking from UV and heat exposure
  • Worn latching or mounting mechanisms
  • Noise issues caused by ageing materials
  • Reduced rigidity compared to fixed or upgraded roof systems

Older or frequently removed tops are especially prone to wear and misalignment.

Why Upgrade Your Hardtop or Targa Top?

Upgrading delivers tangible benefits in comfort, durability, and driving confidence.

Upgrade Advantages:

  • Improved sealing and weather resistance
  • Enhanced structural rigidity and reduced flex
  • Lighter, stronger materials for improved performance feel
  • Refreshed styling for older Porsche models
  • Long-term reliability and reduced cabin noise

Hardtops and Targa tops from Design911 are designed for precise fitment and long-term usability.

Highlights

  • Porsche-specific hardtop and Targa top solutions
  • Designed for durability, refinement, and styling
  • Improved insulation and structural performance
  • Suitable for daily driving and enthusiast builds
  • OEM-fit or performance-upgrade options
