Fender bender=New front end

Wifey had a little fender bender a while back so it was a good time to update the front bumper. I won't mention where I purchased the bottom lip as the vendor did something I'd never encountered so I won't recommend them. Tinted taillights will be in this week.

Also added some roof rails.

Hey Robert, yea its in the blood Shes fine thanks, the Cayenne really held up, but the Acura she hit didn't, almost $7k damage to that poor thing. The stainless plate under the Cayenne's front bumper did most of the damage.

Hope all is well with you and the family. I was just in BFE last Friday, I flew in for a quick meeting, next time I'll PM you if i'm there longer.

The Techarts are 22"

not to be an a** but why didn't you instead change the front bumper with an 08< bumper?

I don't think its a direct fit, headlights are different. I wasn't going for the updates look either.

I want to say it was around $850, I had to buy new parking sensor adapters, grills, and the bumper.

your front end

nice mod.

if you got the same mesh in all of the vents or holes of the bumper and valance it would really enhance the look. maybe a simple black or silver mesh.
