Not for me either. I saw an article recently that the 998 series will have a large (thiner) rear reflector that will look like the 993! They are starting to get it at Porsche IMHO!

they didn't always....
....have a reflector across the rear 
anyhow I have replaced both rear tail lens due to the plastic failing...my center reflector is showing it's age. I nearly bought a new one...but I paused when I saw the blue RUF that was highlighted in Excellence recently. To each their own

I think it looks great on my Ruf Turbo R. Here is a link to a short video. Make sure you watch it in high quality. I don't know why the headlights look yellow in the beginning of the video. The front Ruf emblem is not on yet because I had some paint work done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_5DK_wMMI0

looks good on that Ruf!
I think it looks great on that Ruf, and agree that some colors may work better.
Wonder if anyone has done it on lighter silvers or white?
Know anywhere I can get a cheap reflector?

There is a new thinner rear reflector on the 997.5 facelift but only on the Carrera 4 cars.
