The headlights are one of the beautiful defining features of the 996. They do seem to have a much more menacing look to them over the plain ovals, at least slow cars yield more when they see the evil 996 fried eggs approach... 997 lights not so much.
Agreed - if you want a 997 - sell your car and buy a 997. To me - it's one of the unique features of the car and it works so well with the wider body. Just wash the car a few times to appreciate how well they integrate with the overall design. It's sort of like dating Cindy Crawford and telling her to cover her mole -
I agree with the above sentiment, especially Dave's photo. It just doesn't look right. However, Tomac's execution is the best I have seen so far. It almost looks natural and not forced like other products. Maybe include the space along the bottom to get rid of the white outline along the bumper. Fold the wrap under the light housing.
The pop up washer can be removed internally.
The 996 GT3 RSR lenses have no hole for washer.
U take the chrome pop up washer cover & paint it flat black them glue it over the pop up hole inside the housing

this was a quick 1st attempt to see how it would look. The plan is to remove the headlights and wrap the edges and more of the lights in general.
there was also talk of maybe painting, which I’d rather not do, even thought they are bit weathered and could probably use replacing
The lenses aren't available anymore which is a shame. I love the shape of the headlights, I just don't like the washer...it breaks up the smoothness of the lens.
