I've had the Cayenne for a month now. Really loving it. Super solid, great power and handles like a champ!
I had my mechanic lower it 25mm using the Durametric. I really like how it looks at the Loading Level now (side pic) but still think it is too high in Low Mode so may get him to try to bring it down a bit more..
I installed the clear side markers and went with clear Sylvania Silverstar bulbs. They really aren't bright like they advertise, but I am still happy with the result. I considered going with LEDs but never had positive experiences when doing so with my 997 so decided to stay conventional. Getting at them is such a pain that I won't be changing them anytime soon!
I also installed 18mm H&R spacers on the rear and 14mm on the fronts with black extended bolts (worked out well because my oem bolts were rusty). Definitely gives the Cayenne a more aggressive look.
Cheers

Nice, can you post a rear shot?
I like the the "double decker" rear spoiler on the gts.

Mine doesn't have the 2 level rear spoiler (must have been an option). Here are some more pics.

When it's that low it looks like a VW Golf from the side.

Agree. I've got 18's on my car right now that I'm looking forward to putting some big rubber on to get rid of that gigantic gap.

BTW, beautiful color on your Cayenne.

cheers,

Make sure to get an alignment after lowering it. I chewed through a set of expensive tires very quickly by failing to do this...
