if u stare a naked 997 (no aerokit front or any type of aero enhancement) long enough do u think the headlights are a little oversized? i for one think the headlight could be a little smaller to neutralize that innocent frog look. :p

That's why the TechArt headlight cover exits. :)

didn't think about the 997 looking like a frog... LOL! hilarious

I still think it looks awesome!

Root Apr 3, 2006 05:30 PM

Arling, I just thank God they went back to the oval look! Not sure about the frog impression myself...but this car rocks!

makes me wanna cry

is that the Turbo S front bumper (judging from lip, markers + fogs)?
or is it the later-993TT bumper?

absolutely gorgeous and puts the whole 997 line to shame in the looks dept.

When you park a 993 beside a 997, the 997 headlight were much bigger but when u step back and notice not only the headlight, the whole body was much bigger. The "frog" just grow bigger in last 10 years. both 993 and 997 were smiling frog, 996 was a crying frog ....

totally agree with you, BTW very nice color what is it???

In any case i ve come to the conlcusion that, with the AEROKIT on the situation changes and the front end becomes more harmonic :!

While driving, lean over the steering wheel and look at the front of the car, what do you see?

Boobies!!! rofl :D

I don't think the eye covers will help at all. Then you're comparing "curious-open-eyed-frog" to "about-to-sleep-frog."

That's a stock-to-stock non-aero comparison. When you pit the white aero 997 (kindly shown above in the top right corner of this forum) with that of the blue tt, it becomes a battle between "WOW-amazed-eyed-frog" vs "BIG-Smiley-I'm-Hello-Kitty's-best-friend-frog."

Resistance is futile, you should have gotten a 996! ! ! hilarious

what's 996? i think i've gone through 4 of that... what... 996?! hilarious

mbphreak Apr 6, 2006 01:55 PM

Here's an idea then.
Retrofit the 996 tt headlamps from any of your past 996s onto your 997 hehe.

;)
