Changing something for the sake of change is not always the best course. I think you need to step away from the car now LOL, leave it alone for at least a couple of weeks

Doug,

It's an OEM equipment made available through Porsche via their TEquipment program and it _IS_ DOT legal.

You have your opinions and I have mine. It's a 5 minute job changing the tailights so I could always swap them as I see fit.

I am liking the lights the more I look at them, they grow on you. Is it really a 5 minute job changing the lights, Atomic. What's involved in changing them? Is it a job for the mechanically disinclined?

I am not a huge fan. I think the stockers lightly smoked would look better. Your car is beautiful no matter what though, cobalt is the (o)(o)

I personally like the red/white look best. To me, it's the proper light design.

doesn't make any diff to me other than you gotta spend $/time getting it on so no go vote for me.

the real diff is the upcoming LED lights. that'll be a salient freshening up job. incandescent bulbs have got to go.
