might as well just throw a bowtie on the car. defileing the look of a porsche for the sake of aesthetics.

if the good doctor wanted them all one color he would have made them all one color. next thing you know da aminelz dat tune bowties are going to try to tune our beloved 944s.

this taillight thingie spits in the face of the purists, who should cry

he did make them one color ~ 968. Just took him awhile to figure out that volvo 740 tailights look too damn similar. I used to have a 740 T - not hatin' yo.

Here is my ricey tailights with my ricey rear:

I normally prefer a "purist" approach, but I have to say the amber color lenses just don't work. They don't belong. I may eventually go all red & clear, but that's kind of down on the priority list. . .

I'm not afraid to say porsche made some *** looking tail lights. It was the eightys... Maybe they looked good back then. I guess I am just spitting in they're face then... At least my taillights look how I want them and not how you want them.

So, if someone changes out the stock radio, they're defiling what the almighty Doctor intended and their car is now rice?

Tom and Tifo, you guys kill me.
