Default Cayenne 955 techart help required

Hi guys, I have acquired a techart wide arch bodykit for my cayenne 955 but it did not come with bumper grilles and spotlights.
Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction of where to purchase these items from, I have contacted many dealers of these kits but they only sell complete kits so they keep telling me.
Im desperate to fit this kit but won't do anything without them.
There must be someone that supplies these parts separately.
Thanks in advance..

I remember Brit6 had an avatar on his page with a TechArt 955 body kit in white. Not sure if the car was his but you may want to try to PM him for info: https://rennlist.com/forums/members/69664-brit6.html

I'm in the process of doing a Misha widebody kit on my 2009 CTTS and currently working on the front bumper. Upgrading to 958 model turn signals with DRL function that I'll trigger from a current sensing DRL module. Just finished making custom mounting bracket's for the lights that I'll have powdercoated black. I'm using PIAA led fog lights in the corners of the lower openings (same position as the factory lights), but rather than doing the busy grill work from the OEM bumper, I'm fitting powder coated black mesh to the openings to protect the radiators and Intercoolers from debris and give it a more aggressive look with the large front openings. Maybe you want to do something similar.

Here are a couple pics of the bumper work in process. Mesh is roughed-in in the drivers side upper opening and lower center section so far






and one of about what it will look like when finished, but with the lower front lights too.

Got to be honest your bumper is so much nicer looking than the one I got,I'm not to keen on the look of my one , I only bought the kit as I love the widearch look, if I could mould them onto a turbo bumper I'd prefer the look..

Finally got a reply from techart yesterday asking for my chassis no and build no of my jeep.. when I told them it was not a genuine techart car I had a reply telling me that they will only supply parts for genuine techart cars so here I am still searching the World Wide Web for grilles and light kits.. 🤔

Have you considered making one out of expanded metal or heavy gauge woven screen? They're both popular grill material on race cars and hot rods.

Thanks a lot. If you're interested in doing the complete Misha kit, it's about $10,000 and I can put you in touch with them, just let me know. It included the front & rear bumpers, hood, fender flares to mate up to the molded in widebody bumper arches, side rocker panels, and the upper rear spoiler.

Here's what the rest of the custom mesh grills I fabricated last weekend look like and I'll be assembling the bumper for a final test fit once the lighting brackets come back from powdercoat on Thursday.

To be honest the grille holes are so big that it wouldn't suit the bumper, I've seen a couple done like this and they don't look very nice.

Thanks for the offer but I wouldn't want to spend that much on it as I'm planning on replacing it with a carerra 4 s in the very near future.
