I'm not a big fan of modifying the look of the 996 headlights. They're unique!

I like the "fried egg" look of the 996 headlights. But if someone wants to change the look of the headlights, the way to go is what oMenRC51 did in post #6.

There was a post here a few months ago by someone who did a nice conversion by spraying the fried eggs with smoked-colored paint

BTW is that pic at the end of the road at Gene Coulon park?
Ivan, you are correct. I live right above Coulon park. Even though I live in the "nicer" part of Renton (Kennydale), I can't wait to move out of this city...I need to be closer to SEATTLE.

Do you want to hit up Pacific Raceways on 06/12 for the DE event?
