Beautiful color and a lovely rear shot! Are those dectane LED tail lights? I have been debating whether I should stay stock or get the OEM all reds/ aftermarket LEDs

Thanks for the complement! Yes, they are dectane LED tails. Haven't had any issues with mine after a year's usage... love the look of them over the other offerings...

Now that's a tight fit! Seems as though the garage was built around your 911 - just the way it should be

Does anyone have the all red oem tail lights on a silver 911? Would love to see some pictures. Am currently on the fence about getting them as the few pictures I have seen of silver cars haven't been as flattering as other colors.

Thanks!

Oh man I just realized there are 30 cars here with clear side markers vs 2 with the original yellows. I'm feeling very self conscious right now. I actually preferred my yellow side markers on a silver car but might need to revisit my decision.

Any silvers here have black exhaust tips? I think they might look good to contract the silver but haven't seen any examples.

The clear side markers are less than $50 a pair. You could always try them. I think clears look much better on a Silver 997 IMHO.

New to the forum as well as Porsche ownership. Picked up my 2007 997 Turbo in Arctic Silver a couple months back and am finally getting around to joining the forums. Glad to be here and looking forward to learning lots!

My fat-*** 06 C4S. BTW I've since switched to clear side markers, they really do make the car look cleaner!
