Exterior mod suggestions for my silver 03 CT!

I have a low mileage 03 and have made some subtle exterior mods but haven't been able to decide what I should do next. I bought the b & c pillars, but think adding them would make it look too much like a minivan on silver. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Mods to date:

-diverter valves
-cat bypass
-clear markers
- 21" GTS wheels
- k&n filters
- clear markers
- black GTS door trim


Have thought about this roof spoiler but have to get it imported.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I would also look into the Speedart stuff GMP is selling in the classifieds section. And of course Techart and Gemballa...

Or you could come down to San Jose and look at my brand new never installed Porsche Sport Design body kit with all mounting hardware and foglights with factory GTS bi-plane spoiler that I will be posting for sale this weekend. I bought it for my 2004 Cayenne Turbo and never got around to installing it... now the Turbo is for sale as I am getting a 2011 Cayenne. Body kit will not fit it...

Uhmm contact Reborn asap and it wouldnt hurt to maybe buy a lowering module or springs either just to give it a more aggresive stance. Truck looks awesome tho.

Hey, if I end up doing the dealer trade for the 2011 I might have some other goodies available too like my lowering links... since the dealer will not give me anything extra for them. Mine is a 2004 Turbo in silver with the exact same wheels... to funny!

There we go! I already have lowering links btw. Only lowered it 25mm. It was in normal mode vs. lowered in these pics. lowered is about the height of a GTS.

The whole idea was to make it fast, but some of the exterior was easy to do.

How does that dennison thing work? Want to sell me your ECU? & swap 'em?

I think some stripes like these would be sweet in a light grey over your silver.



Similar to the Porsche Design edition Cayenne.





I couldn't find the exact color combo on a Porsche. Something similar to this color combo.

Thanks for the confirmation about the stripes... I've thought the same thing too. Thanks for digging up some good reference pictures also!

Also one of the first mods I did to my old CS was just having the tail lights tinted since they are so large and color matching front side markers. Maybe powdercoat your wheels black or red etc. Doesnt take much to make that car stand out

RED?? You do know how much those wheels cost right? Maybe a graphite, but to be honest, I hate screwing with wheels and probably would leave alone. I tried making my 20" wheels darker, but it still didn't do it for me.

Have the wheels powder coated RED and then order the side decal set in matching gaurds red from below and your SET

I'm planning on some stripes for mine. After seeing the Porsche Design edition and the Transsyberia editions with stripes I think well done stripes could really do wonders for the Cayenne.

Making it look more sporty and less bulky. Tying the design elements and heritage to the other Porsche models. Overall making it look more "Porsche" and less of " just another SUV"

When I'm not posting from my ipad I will toss up some other design ideas I have had.

Martini stripes!!!

I like the stripes - just do them in slighly darker color than your paint. You get the effect of the stripes without calling too much attention - subtle but sharp. I did this on my Cayman and love the results.
