Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Got the front end wrapped in paint protection film today and thought we would have a play around with losing some of the silver on the headlight units...what do you guys think? (washer caps still to refitted)
The headlamps of the 996.2 are my most favourite feature of the 996.2 (and Turbo); they make the 911 look modern and more interesting. 997s are the dullest-looking 911s to me (faux-historic, lazy design) in plain form.
However, that's not a bad effort.
Always wondered why this is not a more common mod - the 996 is the only 911 that doesnt have the round headlights!

I thought the same. Vinyl now covering the fog light so that's going to be an instant MOT fail and pull from plod too no?
having your front number plate is only going to raise their interest too. don't take it to wales as they are taking no prisoners there with no front plates...even if on the windscreen!
I do like the 996 lights and they have grown on me a lot and its different.
mk2 ones I prefer to the MK1.
I don't think front fogs is a requirement under C&U. If present they may(?) have to work though. Rear fog is compulsory & must work.
I very much doubt plod would be interested in the slightest tbh.
I like it but I prefer the standard look. Individuality is great though.
That's a great looking car. I'm not usually a cabriolet type of guy, but I must admit to feeling "want" when I look at that pic. :thumb:
Give Jason a call here and he has the patterns to CNC cut the film for the paint protection film and the headlight mod.
He has wrapped both my cars and is a "car guy"

BTW and an FYI, Deleting the front fogs is ok as the car is pre 2010.
Front end all finished off now and was at a car show over the weekend where this pic was taken.
Also for those who are concerned about my sanity, it is a "show" plate and a BS plate is on the car when on the road!
