IS that a wrap or is the $400 for installation? I thought installing new trim was a huge pain as the rear piece is heavily attached to the body.

$400 for the wrap

looks good - can you tell close up? Any concerns on how long it’ll last? It’ll probably help you keep it garaged

Can't tell at all that it's a wrap, edges are super sharp and folded over. No concerns at all. Will probably last as long as I have the car.

How’s the material quality on the exhaust tips? I’m tempted to replace mine as well but wary of what Mass winters do to metal that isn’t treated perfectly.

Non-camera hatch switch on the right, with the harness adapter unplugged.

On the car's harness, you can remove that adapter plug...

And once removed...

The remaining plug will fit directly into the eBay camera/hatch switch.
You don’t have a pic of the resulting image quality on the PCM, do you? This is very tempting.

Agree. I have also been interested in knowing how much better the image quality is.

Default Lifted with 275/55r20


I just added a 2" lift and 275/55r20 tires. Need to trim quite a bit from the front valance, but really like the way it sits.

This is AliExpress $20 camera using an AliExpress $120 video card (not a CarPlay version) in a Cayenne with no prior camera install, versus a Cayenne that came stock with the OE reversing camera.

I don't know if the camera is better, or the video card, or both, but the aftermarket camera is more vibrant and has a greater field of view. But with the greater field of view, the width of the backup lines is not accurate (much to narrow), like it is on the OE. With the new camera, I also like how the "Observe Surroundings" is not further obscuring the limited view like it is in the OE arrangement:

Finished installing my secondary cat delete. Sounds better but not crazy.

Which ones did you go with? I have Soul performance pipes waiting to be installed.

Finally got around to swapping out my window switch panel that 2!or 3 of the silver trims fell off of to the $35 one from Amazon that’s been sitting next my toolbox for months. Now just need to do dash cams & brakes that are also sitting there.
