Has anyone done the front turbo bumper on a Cayenne without park distance control?> The only place I have seen this bumper without the holes for park distance control is in carnewal.com but they just modify the OEM and cover the holes
I think your pricing is wrong . I pay around $1600 CDN for the bumper & Grill . + extra for the both Side Duct .

You are paying way too much. It should not cost more than 500

CT,
i sent the PM back.

looks like i need to clear up few things. Porsche did it again. the price doesn't make much sense there. some people here said the bumper is around 500. yes that is true but that price only including the bumper skin & all the grill inserts. that seems like a good deal until u find out the cost of the lip (lower part of the bumper where the fog light is) is actually more expensive than the bumper skin & grills for around 600.

reason people here said around 500 because they don't need the factory lower lip since they're getting Techart of Gemballa front add-on, which i think that might be a good deal since the factory one is not cheap. hope this answer the question some of u might have.

But the lower lip looks identical are you sure that you need to purchase the turbo lower valence? has anyone tried to install the turbo front bumpoer cover with the regular cayenne S lower valence? If I am right the conversion kit on carnewal does not include a lower valence.

By the way the reason why some conversion kits are very expensive kis because behind the turbo front bumper there are air vents that are meant to cool the brakes and all those hoses and clamps are very expensive, but I think the lower valence of the non turbo, will fit the turbo front bumper, has anhyone actually tried to do this?

The porsche dealer said the front fog light section should be the same on both Cayenne S and Turbo.

If you had the choice, would you change the bonnet hood as well?
I personally just like the Front Turbo look, but the hood might be available as well. Or would it be overkill to have the turbo bonnet on?
