Looking great - how do you like the ride on the H&R springs?
How much was the install?
I'm considering doing springs on mine and still debating...

Looks good..I like the dark blue
The nicely blacked out trim goes well with the wheels
Btw,what part of SF do you live in?

Ylincooper those pictures don't do justice to how awesome it looks in person. I saw one like yours at the dealer and my jaws dropped. The Sport Ed wheels with matching color may look bad in the web configurator but it looks insanely good up close in person. I was having serious doubts with my TurboII wheels. Why didn't you get them in a matching dark blue color?

And how are those HR springs?

The ride is nice on the springs. No complaints. A little bit firmer than stock but I mainly did it for looks. I had them installed for around 500.

I was debating color matching, but then I thought the black would match the other black already on the car. Now im debating getting the black lower trunk strip.

Thanks guys

Try covering the lower trunk strip with vinyl. If you don't like it, you can take it off easily. That's what I did with my black Cayenne and it made the back "sportier" and upgrading to the clear side markers will give your front a cleaner look.

I noticed the Grand Cherokee in the garage, how do you like it so far? I want to buy a black one for my daily commute and make the Cayenne a weekend car.

Guys, when you change the springs does PASM settings still work? Im really picky when it comes to ride comfort. Nothing expect floating feeling will do for me.

Yes, PASM will work fine as it adjusts shock compensation, nothing with the springs.

Personally, I am not a fan of black wheels..however,they look good on your Cayenne and give it a more serious,means business kinda look
Though,as you can no doubt tell from my pics,I am a big fan of the blacked out look and I must compliment you on a nicely finished one
You have one of the better looking Cayennes I have seen
