Black Spears on White



This picture was taken with my phone and I either moved it or the quality isn't that good. At any rate, Helo Driver asked me to post a picture and here it is. I'm yet to take some good pictures, but I hope to get to it soon.

Looks good Rudy. Are you going to tint your windows or have you already? If so, what percent?

The plastic pieces that hold your fog lights. Look at the pic above. His are painted black. You can see the fog-light in the middle of the blackness. Those plastic pieces that hold the foglights in the black-void used to be white.

Okay, thanks Helo. Yes, it looks much better - more like a 997 front end!

The horizontal body pieces that contain the fog light.

All-black airscoops look fabulous. I think/hope this is the effect that Porsche intended, else why make the phony pocket above the fog lights to simulate large intakes. But they got side-tracked by some computer-gaming whiz-kid into painting the lights/spears for an 'ultra-bold' look. I've been looking for a solution to what I saw as an eye-sore, and yousome others came up with what I think is a perfect, easy and cheap answer. Congratulations on making a very beautiful car even more attractive.

Thanks for the complements! I forgot to take a picture of the black nickle exhaust tip from Boothe Design. That's another winning combinationwith the Carrerra White. I'll post later!

CaymanTime,


It's flat black. I asked the shop to match the flat trim above them.
