Portsche Only

I am considering the front LED's and rear 997.2 tail lights. Has anyone bought these from the dealer and stuck with Porsche factory parts. How much do they cost. I just prefer to stick with authentic Porsche parts.

Pretty easy to understand. I want to avoid aftermarket lights.

You will learn to spell "PORSCHE" correctly or you will be hunted down and made fun of in public.

I did a full 997.2 Sport classic/Speedster bumper and lip with all OEM with LEDs.
I am running OEM Euro rear bumper with OEM 997.2 tails.

there are a few others who did the conversion also.

Price depends on where you get the parts and of course the labor.
but I'll tell you now it's not cheap, over $5500 spent on front and rear.

Porsche I obviously meant. It didn't auto correct which is strange. I'll probably just stick with my stock set up.

Not worth $5500 if you ask me. Surely will be money lost if you trade or decide to sell.

aftermarket looks cheap and tacky IMHO.

OEM 997.1 > Aftermarket Anything.
