993 headlamps on a 930...anyone done this?

I was looking by accident, and the 993 look awfully close in style to the older
65-89 911/930 headlamps.

Has anyone done a conversion(which I know would be bank), and some photo's.
At about 400/standard and 1k/Litronic per lamp, it might not be too pricy. , not including the labor, etc

Thanks in advance!

You will need new front quarter panels / fenders.

What's your motivation for this?.. An extra MPH top speed?

I believe going 'slope nose' (aka 'slant') gains you 3mph over the standard. (330bhp Sports Equipped did 167mph; the Sports Equipped slant did 170mph.)

..Or do you just think it looks cool?

The nice thing about 993 headlamp is that you can easily and cheaply fit in aftermarket HIDs.

4 1/2 years since I bought my $130 HID kit, it stilll works great and provide much better lighting than the non-OEM bulbs.

I think the 993 fenders and lights look nice on an earlier car.
