Reflector Cover, Headlights, PDK, New Engine - MY09 PET
Perhaps confirmation of the reflector cover that seems to be blacked out on spy photos of the facelift (looks to only appear on the widebody 997.5)

It says “reflector cover.” And there seems to be a horizontal panel between the new tail-lights.
Bringing back the 911 reflector may be a nod to retro, but I'm not sure it's going to do much for the 997's already lovely rear-end.
It's amazing how thorough Porsche is about keeping its new models “under camo” when they're out in public. You rarely, if ever, see an undisguised shot of a new Porsche body-style before they're ready to show it to you.

They're getting more and more like Detroit. I suspect the wide-body owners were complaining that their cars were not distinctive enough (22mm a side) to warrant the added price.

Well I guess "selector lever PDK" means we'll be seeing it soon!
Nice find on those schematics.
