Are you f#@king kidding me? So what if he wants to toot his own horn about mods he has done? Flame wars always end up bad - nobody except video gamers win wars over the internet. Settle down, give the thread originator some comments if ya like, don't freak out. Be chill
Btw... what kind of lamps are in those new-fangled headlights?

This is why I suggested "drive it during the day". In case you haven't noticed, our cars are pretty vulnerable on the road due to high-profile vehicles having a hard time seeing them.
You dont have a clue as to what you are talking about. I hate coming back from vacation to rennlist and finding some troll who has no idea about the laws where I live, my car, or as it seems what rennlist used to be a few years ago. GotBoost, you seem intent on flaming people every chance you get, or so the search on your name shows. So now that you've said some things I'll dispell your rumors about my lights. They are legal (to a degree, the only thing illegal is how bright the high beams are), I do not get cited for them, I have a NY State Inspection Sticker, they are safe and I will put them up against ANY headlight setup here on rennlist on a 944 or a 968. I garuntee you they will give the most visibility of any setup on a street car here. Oh, and what do you care if someone wants to spend money and chat about upgrades, that's what a project car and this website is for? If you dont like it you're in for a long stay. Granted, if you continue attacking established members, maybe it'll be a short one.

Regarding MPD47's comments: Well spoken and bravo sir.

Btw your car is still smokin' hot - everytime I see that TRS wing I regret putting the 60" lindsey on the hatch...but then I can't have a copy of yours now can I. I still haven't forgotten about you hookin' me up with the head light set up you have sometime...I just have to get back to the US for some reason other than a Funeral or Wedding (last one is my own)!

Got Boost?- Please do EVERYONE a favor and STFU. Obviously forums such as this are for mods and for people to tell others what they have done for experience and for some an ego stroke. I see the same thing on forums for cars up to and over the $100k dollar mark - even in the e60.net forums for the BMW 550. So if you don't like what you hear and don't contribute to the conversation in a positive way then FU@K OFF. JGPORSCHE, even if he might brag in someone's definition which in my opinion he isn't, has still contributed volumes more than you have or ever might. So please sir, silence your childish ramblings.

Uh oh, Jesse, better watch out... looks like you got yourself a stalker, and he's got a HUUUGE internet *****!

The low profile look is very sleek, no doubt, but the small twin halogens look something like a Mitsu 3000GT to me- not very "Porsche", if that makes any sense. Sandvik, that's a cool look, but with that amount of overhang, wouldn't air pressures at speed possibly cause issues?

I meant the 1st pic, not that 1. But I do think it would create a large amount of pressure on the fixtures and housing.
Where can I buy them????
