    That's pretty cool. Still the 996 tail-lights though.

      I agree, it is bad but wait, there's more!
      If you guys thing this is bad, I've seen a kit that transforms 993 to look like 996!

      No offence to 996 owners but I'm sure 95% will agree, that "design concept" is seriously ****ed up!

      So let me get this straight, someone with a 993 could get the 996 kit and then the 997 kit which has the design elements of the 993?

      Man. Just take the depreciation, trade and have yourself a true 997 without all that crap glued to it. Sure it looks fancy, but it's an empty suit of steel. Come-on, you don't want that thing. Keep it pure!

      I looked into the Hamann package for the 997s ( I like the whale tale) and I thought it was rather expensive. I would guess your right from money position as well. The depreciation hit (10-15k) is probably as much as the fully installed kit and you don't have your car in the shop for a week, ect.
