Default Need opinions / pics on front / rear skid plate & underbody protection / 2012 Turbo

About to buy a 2012 Cayenne Turbo, fully loaded... but can't decide on the front / rear skid plates and underbody protection. Has anyone ordered this? Any pics? Any thoughts? Do you lose any ground clearance? Can you see the protection from the side under the doors?

Is the stainless steel front / rear skid plates much more noticeable than 'not' having them and does it look good in person?

Appreciate any opinions / thoughts as soon as possible.

thanks.

I think the front/rear stainless steel skidplates look good and you don't lose any ground clearance. But like anything else, how it looks is a matter of personal preference.

I guess it's one of those subjective things. I have them and feel they can barely be seen. Especially from the rear. Not sure I'd order them again.

I agree it's what you personally like. I like the way the front skid plate looks but agree that the rear one can barely be seen and do not think its worth it.

The Cayenne Turbo on the Porsche website has the stainless front and back in their pictures.
