I found your problem on the headlight adjustment..."There ain't no headlight!" Nice front wheel BTW.

Seriously any "finished" pictures...not that I'm skeptical...but I'm curious.
Those are them. Not much point installing the headlight when a part is missing/broken behind it :P
The trim does look good. I know you got new wheels. Did you drive the car home like this?? When will the missing/wrong parts be in?

I don't have it yet. Illegal to drive it like that in VA (and unlike my luck with no front plate, radar detector, dead registration, and/or dead inspection I'm sure I'd be pulled over every 10 feet driving like that).

Yeah I was always skeptical about the painted arch extensions, but they were required for the wheels. The combination looks really nice.

A) I just got out of bed.
B) I did say I have something work related that is taking up all day (e.g. chances of me picking it up today are slim).

And if I can't get it today, tomorrow is pretty much out due to work as well.

Because it's sat so long, once I do get it back I need to take it to get it's oil and fuel filter changed too :(

Are those turbo wheels or did you just put spacers on? Either way looks good. Did anyone see the yellow turbo P!G that sold today on BAT? Sand yellow over natural leather, with $40K++ of options and 29,000 miles. Nicest Cayenne I’ve ever seen.
