WANTED: Cool "Pic" of you and your Cayenne

I hit a deer a couple weeks ago, which damaged and dislodged the passenger's side of the front bumper cover. I MacGuyvered it more-or-less back together and replaced the mostly shattered plastic horizontal intake vanes with metal rain gutter screen painted black. I think it looks pretty good for a $10 solution!
I also mounted up the clear turn signal lenses and amber bulbs I've had floating around in the garage for a while. The scuffs on the driver's side weren't deer-related, just standard scrape-and-run parking lot damage somebody inflicted.

Good Morning snap today... One of the last shots of these wheels in the current color.... More to post in the near future.
Also attached a photo of my first Cayenne.
First Cayenne was a Turbo S
Second Cayenne is a Turbo
Trying to convince the wife to take on the Macan (still working on that)

I wanted so badly to love the Macan and walked away after many test drives since its release saying it is just OK but no Cayenne. We kept going back hoping we would find a reason to make it work for us but could not. Unlike the Cayenne which to me up until the latest engine change feels different than anything else on the market, the Macan could have been just about any marque I was driving.
We considered buying a macan S and after test driving both the turbo and S we ended up buying a cayenne GTS.
The final straw that did it for me with the Macan was taking it out on a snow covered parking lot and putting it through its paces. It handled like an AWD sedan in the snow with M&S tires. Once it broke traction it became awkward and unpredictable. The GTS with summer tires responded as it was designed, loss of traction didn't even phase it and still drives like a large 911 when on the open road. As nice as the Macan is the Cayenne is a superior vehicle in every respect.

My compliments on your parking selection and technique also nice and far from any potential adjacent cars. :thumbsup
Around here I typically look up as well and try not to park under any trees if I can help it (pollen / sap / birds)

Thanks! Yeah, I had to weigh the + of it being at the end of a row with the - of it being under a tree. I try not to be too paranoid about parking this thing, but I am actually unreasonably protective of it. Prob bc old habits are hard to break.

very nice looks great in white.
My recently purchased 14 GTS I have to admit they have come a long way from my 04 CTT. The TT is faster but the GTS is just better in many ways.
I have to consider winter tires and wheels for the GTS it is useless right now.
