I costed up the parts, panel and paint a while ago and it was around 3K here. Hard to justify but would update one of the only areas on the car that still looks "old".

Although, sometimes I look at the 968 rear and think it makes the car look a little "high" in the butt when compared to a 951 rear with the underspoiler.

But you're going to turbo an n/a. . .

Dude, you're a nice kid, but you crack me up sometimes. How do you expect to deal with the complexities and cost of a turbo conversion if you (by your own admission) don't have the resources to modify a taillight?

That's the funniest thing I've read today.

Smoked ain't that bad - Sean (URIN2ND) did that. It looks especially bad-*** on black cars. Then again, I think it'd look decent with an all-red base (the amber panel conversion to red), with a smoke on top of it to match smoked glass on my white car. I may go that way eventually. . .
Problem with smoke is it gives the cops something to pull you over for if they want to be a-holes about it. IIRC it's illegal to reduce the amount of light transmitted from any required light on a vehicle.

As far as reducing light - it's a state law question. In FL you just need to be able to see brake/taillights from a certain distance. Doesn't matter what you do to them as long as it can be seen from that far.
