Never liked the look of the 996's lights...so this is definitely a good improvement IMO...

I'm surprised to say, "I really like it". Don't care for the front markers but love the look of the painted lights.

Great job!

Nice markers, what type of leds you used?
Can't seem to justify the price for a simple led install into markers...
but good job!!

it's a waterproof led! And the price includes new side markers blacked or custom color painted with LEDs and instictins to install! Gemballa charges 200 for just tinted side markers! But I do see your point if you can build them yourself!

Not the LEDs. The LEDs have to be amber! But the side maker itself can be painted any color!

how did you prep the plastic?

I have the blue 3M film on my headlights.

Plus my car is silver...so it wont look as "seam less" like yours. The black really hides the old light shape very well.

here are my covers...
