if the Cayenne was my daily driver, i would have definately mod the sh*t out of it BUT it's my wife's daily driver and unfortunately she like's it stock. i had suggested to her: lowering module, 22's w/ black center, body kit, window tint, etc. but she's NOT interested.

my body shop painted my orange markers black and also tinted my rear and brake lights. i think any good body shop will be able to do this.

thanks. i think iridium looks awesome w/ the mods i did. if i had iridium car i still would have black center wheels and smoked rear and brake lights and tints all around. it won't look as evil

as black but the contrast in color still looks awesome. what wheels u have on ur C55? why not mod it like mine?

My C55 is currently all stock except for a flat hood emblem and painted reflectors. I'm planning to get Bilstein PSS9s and HRE or maybe DCR wheels. I'll start modding as soon as I take care of some financial obligations. Once complete, my car will be all silver instead of blacked out.

Great Looking C

JTC55,

I have to agree, the car looks mean! Anybody got photos of a brilliant silver car with some cosmetic mods? Would love to see some.

Thanks
