I have the black pdls and I love them. I think it really depends on your car color and the look you want to achive. My car is white so they give it a nice contrast, I want the black & white combo... here's a couple of pix:

I agree. They look great on a white car and the red interior with B&W exterior looks perfect. I would be hesitant to go for black headlights on a black car. You would lose some of what makes the 911 personality.

Just a matter of personal taste. There is no wrong answer.

Here are pics of a black and a white 599 with black headlights if it helps:

That's a lot of money for some black plastic!
Of course, it is special Porsche plastic. . .

Looks great - many of us here have ordered our Cayennes with this option. But as others have said - it is super expensive IMO.......but then again, so is every other option on these damn cars!

Cheers,
