according to my sales person, who no longer works for porsche so i assume the advice is not biased, they dont really care unless it's damage.

I believe the lease contract specifies that no alterations are allowed.

Thanks so much for the photo. You did a great job there. I wonder if can do a close up shot on the brake caliper and the window trim for me... I really wanna do the same thing. Congrats again

few things I rec:

1. Paint the muffler box black too - I had the same issue and it looks so much better
2. get the black out head lights - guaranteed worth the money and will be super sick
3. looks like u need thicker spacers....both front and back
4. Drop it? I have H&R springs works great and no change on the ride quality at all or module if you have air suspension.
5. Tint the windows 35% all around

hahaha just my .02

The silver front lip is awesome - good choice!!

1) Yes i do notice it, so perhaps next time
2) You are a bad influence
3) I have 14mm, cant go much more. front i dont know if it matters?
4) I have air suspension, at the sport plus setting, it looks better, i just didnt have time to take good pix
5) See posts below, with the electronic shades up, it almost look tinted. I dont want to give cops anymore reason to pull me over.

I took more bad photos, after raining and using a blackberry. But i can tell you the trims look great, well worth the money, i thought it would take away from the luxury a little, it doesnt. Spend the money and get the factory replacement. The brake calipers look amazing in person. Again it depends on your installer as well. Overall i am very happy with the new look.

Looks great! You need lowering links. FVD make the best, I have them on mine and it made a tremendous difference in appearance, and also performance at higher speeds.
