Default Late 928 taillights on 951?

I love the way the late model 928 taillights look. I know the 968 lights can be done but how about the 928? A bit harder I'm sure. Any photoshop gurus who can make a picture?

If you read the post, we were talking about 928 tails.

I always thought the 968 looked similar to the 928GT. Thought it might give him the look he was after.

Other than you know, about a 20 degree difference in angle of the rear of the car, not to mention where it curves into the 1/4 panels, yeah, pretty close.

Didn't mean to get you upset. It's just an opinion.

Lol! Hahhahhaha! You have somehow managed to read my mind and put it into pictures! That's the same basic mental image 928's give me....spaceships. Hehe, still I love 'em though as they are Porsches afterall.
