Anyone has the insight to do so at the lowest cost possible including the LED turn signals??

 

I think you may a very long list of parts. Each LED light is over 500 and the wiring may not work. It may be cheaper to go with a vorsteiner.

 

Yup it is better off for you to go for an aftermarket kit to achieve a lower price range. On the side, even if you do achieve the conversion, just don't put a turbo badge on the back.

 

good advice

 

Oh hell no this is number one no no, I hated those posers who put AMG and M badges on their cars

Ya I got a quote just the parts cost about 4000 plus paint and labor I'm not sure if it's worth it

 

+1

I was driving at the 405 a couple of days ago and saw a white panamera v6 with cheapo turbo exhaust tips and turbo badge. He did not even have the turbo bumper convesion wth??? I hate posers like that. No offense to the panamera v6, its a very capable car, i just felt people should be happy with what they have.

 

why not let people do what ever they want to their likings i say go 4 it man the turbo bumper way nicer than the panamera or the panamera s bumper

 

There is a reason for that and I bet porsche did that for that very same reason. If porsche made it the same then nobody'll buy the turbo, for what? 0.2 second faster on the freaking red light??? I stand by people should be happy with what they have! I am not bashing on people trying to change to the turbo bumper. Just people who r never happy with what they have and try to be what they r not like (E.g panamera with a turbo badge?? does that really make u feel better having the damn S****Y badge there fooling people, really??? Then more power to u)

 

Please read the above post more closely please, your interpretation is wrong. We are not saying he cannot do it, we are just recommending some view points of ours and just don't put badge on the back.

 

I understand i don't realy like the badge thing too

 

Just to be back on topic. There are quite a few turbo bumper listings on ebay currently. One looks fishy, but others seem legit, like this one:

Thx K-e-V for the info!!

 

I usually debadge my cars. I have a v6 and took off the panamera, too much lettering on the back of the car for me. I am also considering a turbo or after market front bumper for the Panny. I think the OEM for the non-turbo cars are not aggressive enough. Less is more. even if you install a turbo look bumper, turbo wing (spoiler), install the exhaust tips, have the turbo wheels and paint the brakes red. It is fine as long as you do NOT put a turbo badge on it. IMHO

I have a ferrari 360 spider and just installed a stradale front bumper (after market). it was an exact copy of the OEM bumper, BUT it took a lot of time to get it on the car correctly. The body shop guy does amazing work and works on the historic ferraris and has been around for a long long time. Anyway I would NOT buy over the internet unless you actually hold it in your hands.

I once bought a rear turbo look bumper (over the internet) and the body shop refused to install it on my porsche 996. I still have that bumper in storage somewhere. So be careful when buying after market body parts.

 

exactly what i was thinking, I really dislike when people go on a tangent about this and that, just help the man out, he wants a turbo front? he has the money for it? let him do it. Now if he puts the TURBO badge on the back of a 4S, now the problem may start, but if he is just doing it for the look or design of the turbo front bumper I really dont see any problem at all....

 

To each their own... I personally don't get it, but people love to tweak their cars..so let them do it.

However I find it a bit ironic that the only people who really know the difference between the various bumpers and trims are Panamera owners or true enthusiasts... It is also us who can pick out something like a V-6 with a Turbo bumper or aftermarket trim, whether we appreciate it or not.. The average person would not know the difference..
