    That's a strange picture. The vent on the left is not lined up with the light directly above it. The vent on the right is.

    Re: 997 facelift

    When I zoom Alex' pictures in paintshop, the image becomes too blurry to see any details. And on the white car, the lights will be neatly aligned, it's just that the sticker over it, camouflaging the real outlines is put on a bit weird. Look closely and you can see that these are stickers, not the real lights.

    The area around the indicator is still camouflage, they've used a foil to fool us, but obviously have been lazy when they applied the foil.

    Cancel the appointment you just made with your optician.

    It's just the perspective. The light unit projects out forward of the vent, causing that effect.

    That would explain why he was so intensely interested in the launch date!

    Is there any way I could attach that image to a PM to him?
