Even the stock lights don't "follow the lines of the car". Look at the turn signal/front bumper line.
Au contraire. The stock lights do very clever things with the bumper line. What they do is carry the bumper across the light unit along the divide between the clear and amber part of the light.

Personally, I think the original 986 lights are a very, very nice bit of design and help make the early 986 easily the prettiest Box of all.

But hey, we all like different stuff.
