Saw these at the LA Auto show. Strickly cosmetic? Ugly yes/No? Cost? Thanks..

 

I'm sure they are functional as well by protecting the actual headlight from impacts by rocks and debris.

 

To blue for me, I like it the way it was designed.

 

looks good but only if really functional imo.

 

Go with the 3M film for lights. It is thicker than the clear bra material and really protects our expensive lenses from damage. Easy to install as well.

 

I have the 3M body armor on my lights. Works well at protecting the headlights and no hazing.

 

Were's a good place to get pre-cut 3M film for a 996?

Search is your friend!

This topic has come up a few times before...and you are going to get split replies. Some like em some dont...so...

Me...I like em and I got the same inspiration you did so here is my cab with the blue 3M film.

 

I guess you summed it up. Everybody has their own opinion. Looks good@!

 

I have seen a couple of cars with the yellow film on them, a bit of a racing connection I guess.

I am also torn like you, if I should or not.

 

Is there a place where you can obtain a dark film?

 

I bought a dark film from stickercity.com and modified it a little ( I bought the darkest they sell,applied it then cut out the light portion). I have had the film on my car for about 2 years now and have no complaints.

As far as the yellow look I replaced my white "city lights" with a yellow bulb. This allows me to run yellow lights when I want (dusk, when parked).

 

Another set of pictures, all of these where taken with the yellow lights on. When it becomes dusk or at night these lights are very yellow. They do not get enough power or are not large enough to make bright yellow light during the day.

Stickercity.com has the film precut for the Porsche lights and in many shades

 

Gary thanks for posting those pictures, gives me a better idea of how it would look.
