Sometimes less is more.

Maybe move it up a tad at the same time, and track down that clear brake light from the "painted side skirt" thread.

Any direction on the "clear brake light" would be appreciated.

When I get my allocation I'm swapping the Model Name for just "911" and plan on having the word "PORSCHE" removed too. With the current model 991 the Porsche name on the rear end looks too damn big! Besides I am one for understated looks and appearances.

Yeah, I'd love to get that clear third brake light too. I've come to the conclusion that for my taste, the clear tail lights need either the third brake light or the rear reflectors to match. And the problem with the separate body color rear reflectors is that coupled with the clear tails, they apparently don't meet regs for sufficient red reflectivity. (Red tails also contain red reflectors.)

It may be $132 but they have to paint it and they use the right stuff so it does not fade or have issues later on. You get what you pay for
