Macan 4 EV (Nov '24 Production)
Country flag
In my random YouTube viewing, chanced upon this unit which seems to have body coloured trim for the wheel arches and lower valence pieces (all that horrid grey plastic under the door).

Won’t lie, if this had been an option at point of manufacture, I’d have picked this in a heartbeat - was the main reason I went the off-road package to get rid of as much of the textured plastic as possible (without going for the turbo).

Wondering if anyone had any experience with these pieces and/or knows of a kit for this?

I’m in the same camp as you, I did enquire about body colouring those parts, it is possible aftermarket, but I opted for a turbo instead to avoid any hassle at the end of the lease

it does look really nice, surprised they didn’t body colour the mirrors after all that effort though!

I totally agree with you, which is why I’m trading my 2024 in for a new 2026 Macan 4 with the new sport design package. Check out the configurator for that as it replaces all of the grey- what I call Walmart shopping cart plastic -with gloss black. The package transforms your sub GTS trim into a GTS trim style. My trade also allows me to change a bunch of stuff I want such as the better wheels, adding innodrive and I am now getting the full leather package to replace the standard one, and it comes with the new keyless feature. I was just waiting for a good step change and that sport pack was the tipping point.

All that said I really like the body color trim change and would be interested to know how they did that

One thing I didn’t consider when ordering was the colour of the wheels, I went with jet black metallic to match, but I never actually considered how the other black options (high gloss or satin) would compare…
For those that went black on black, any thoughts?

In Switzerland Porsche offers to recolour spider wheels for around 900 Stutzen/GBP in case you chance your mind. Friend just did it.
