What is the general opinion about this headlight mod??

That look doesn’t do much for me. Also, be aware that Bob did this mod to his Porsche and it caused two engines to self-destruct. Need I say more?

Sorry, Bob, I just couldn't help myself!

It is not for everyone, but I guess as long as you like it , it shouldnt matter what others think.

Yeh thats fine. Not to overdone. My first thought was that it looks a little 997ish.

Not my cup of tea.... But then again, I tend to have bland taste. I don't put salt or butter on my popcorn, eat baked potatoes like apples, and eat my rice plain. The "plainer" the better for me.

I'm not a huge fan, but I don't consider it "ricerish" or anything like that.

Looks cool. Almost like it could be a 2007 model look.

I think they look pretty cool, especially since the lights on the 996 are SOOO big.

ElTorrente

Would those affect the light beam(s) in any way?

I think they would look better if they blended with the car better, instead of being able to see the outline of it so clearly- makes it look like an add-on instead of integrated.

you know I don't know either...just put them on...and actually considering to upgrade my front to the 2002 version.

I have been looking at it all day and can't make up my mind.....I kind of like it, but kind of don't.....I have to walk around the car for at least a week or so, before I can make up my mind...but thanks for all the replies!!

Nicolaasdb

they don't affect the beams in any way....just took the P out in the dark...to verify.....but when I attached them they fit like a glove.

I didn't really like it on Bob's car, and I think I like it even less on yours since it has even more "cutouts", sorry guy. However, that being said, I have to say I LOVE the rest of your car, it's simply breathtaking.

Nicolaasdb

you guys are all A--holes..I am going to bed crying tonite!!!

Like I said I have to make up my mind..kind of like them...but probably going to update the front the 2002 model..until then I WILL KEEP THEM ON MY P, BECAUSE IT IS MINE AND I CAN DO WHAT I WANT!! Just kidding....well it is mine....

I just never really liked the head lights on the 996....love the 997 headlights...

I like the headlights on the 1999-2001 996. I prefer them to the "facelift" headlights. Plus, they have a nice pedigree... the GT1.
