McDonald Posted February 19, 2022 Report Share Posted February 19, 2022 Has anyone seen a Boxster with front spotlights? How did it look? I saw video of a 911 in snow, fitted with spotlights. I thought it looked great. It made me wonder... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninesomething Posted February 19, 2022 Report Share Posted February 19, 2022 (edited) Mate! Nooooooooooo! Actually I did see a pic of one with lifted suspension and big wheels/tyres. It was OK but..... Edited February 19, 2022 by JonSta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menoporsche Posted February 20, 2022 Report Share Posted February 20, 2022 Yes but I wasn’t sure. I saw some on here within the last month or so. Not you? Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes - have some fitted and also collected images to help me settle on the install for mine. Will dig them out and post here. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 911 in snow, where I saw spotlights fitted, gave it an adventurous look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, they were just some cheap led things off EBay for @Mr96er’s “night manoeuvres”😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menoporsche Posted February 20, 2022 Report Share Posted February 20, 2022 I thought map’s 986 looked rather cool actually. That’s why I remembered it. Not sure it would work on a newer car but I felt there was a 90s rally vibe it was coherent with the style of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here you go - plenty of shots of my lightly tweaked 986S and the aux driving lamps: These are most of the "inspiration" photos I gathered - not mine, simply gleaned from the internet and saved to help me settle on what may or may not work: And then there was the C4 996 that so many have seen on Social Media: Plus of course the 996 GT3 Endurance race cars had yellow lamps inserted where the front number plate normally lives and that looked epic. 4 hours ago, Menoporsche said: I thought map’s 986 looked rather cool actually.

Wouldn't do it but..... They look great from the front, not so in profile. It makes the car distinctive, definitely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
