Thanks dedens! I picked up the darkest tint I could from Headlight Armor for taillight blackout, then used an Xacto knife to carefully trim the bottom piece to just blackout the white/clear lens. People seem to love the look, as do I.
That said, I'm not totally happy with how it turned out. From 10+ feet it looks great, but up close there's a decent amount of bubbles and waviness. If it doesn't work itself out in the next 10 days, I will pull them off and start over.

The taillights looks great 99666. Where did you source them?

Wheels came with the car when I purchased it 3 yrs ago
Not really sure what brand my wheels are as they came with the car when I purchased it. I actually have a set of Champion wheels I’m getting ready to put on. I’m just waiting for my tires to go bad as soon as I am due for a new set of tires, I will put them on my champion wheels & likely get rid of these wheels.
like your tailight! Thinking of copying it!
heres a pic of my champion wheels waiting to get back on the car.

Starting here, a sweet example with body coloured front lip clean *** and interesting wheels and headlight covers.
This mod taking the rear retro with smoked upper clears showing the full length rear reflector.
Granted it's a 930 I like Arctic Silver's *** better.
The tea tray's awkward, the bumper rubbers twenty pounds of bulbous, the fake bumper crumple plastics...cheesy.
Linen seats...sorry. Snorkel rear brake light...please.
Other than the Fuch's I'm not the feeling the love.
There's my old ride. Stellar as it was this one's better.
In my opine mistered paint those rear bumperettes body colour then maybe plastidip the rear emblem S red, further soiling no longer.
Showing you all mine.

Just bought the car last week.
2002 996 C4S with 147xxx kms
Gone now for detailing and I send her next week for IMS bearing replacement and new clutch.
Im trying to figure out if the wing is an aftermarket or come for another P model?
