Hi, guys
 
May I ask is it difficult to retrofit the bonnet of Cayenne? If so, how difficult or if not, how easy?
 
Thank you very much.

Hi it might help if you explain the problem in a little more detail, so we can understand the significance of "Retrofit".

Um...actually I have ordered my Cayenne GTS and it will be arrived to me next month, but I do not really like the bonnet that GTS has, and I would like to have the turbo version instead, so just wondering is it difficult to install the bonnet (you know it is a brand new car, so if it is not easy to install then I think I should forget about it)

Hi
I've not actually changed one, but looking at the fixings etc its straight forward, careful changeover. However this in effect is an expensive change, because you will need a paintjob on the replacement bonnet, and however good the company are that do the paint, there is always the match issue, especially after time in the sun and weather.
Why not keep the bonnet, and consider say the Caractere Full Body Kit to differentiate your car in a more spectacular way from the average Turbo or GTS on the streets.
