Agreed, especially if you don't convert the rear.

I would do it in a heart beat, simply because I HATE the Coxster lights on the 996.
The ugliest lights on any Porsche bar none.
I would even do a 993 headlight treatment to a 996.. anything to get rid of the stupid "fried egg" lights.

Yep, 996 is probably the only 911 i would not buy cause of its looks(exception only for GT3 or GT3RS), better 993 wich is my favorit or 997 8)

I agree, as much as I do not like Porsche breaking from tradition and going with a different headlights in the 996 then going back to the traditional headlights in the 997, if I had a 996, I do not think I would change the headlights.
This really is bordering on "rice". (If it isn't it already.)
