I, too, have just replaced my headlights with the Porsche Litronic retorfit kit. I agree Randall that there is a huge difference in the quality of the light, as well as the look of the car w/o the amber. What did you do with your original headlights, or are you holding onto them to switch back before you sell? I think I will sell my halogens (with Silverstars).

Lookin good Randall, lookin good....Black would have been one of my top choices for color, no doubt! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I like the clears, but I am old school I guess..... I prefer to do as little mods as possible wanting to keep it mostly stock. I actually bought the clear corners and was going to deamber, but I changed my mind, going back to the original look.....Having brighter lights is a good thing as far as night vision goes tho. $1200 would be a bit steep for me at this juncture even if I chose to go that route........The rims are pretty unique, don't think I've seen those on a Box before....

How much do you think you've sunk into her for mods or upgrades?

New seats and three spoke steering wheel totally transform an old interior.
The new top also keeps it looking current. Nothing worse than seeing a nicely waxed Porsche with a dingy ratty looking top.
Try painting the calipers really makes a big difference. and dress those tires!
