Are those blinkers or reflectors on the wheel arches? I only see them on Macans from the US.
Side marker lights—a US required thing. Think driving lights, but on the side and uglier.

I just ordered body colored replacement markers, as I cannot stand the reflector look. Not worried about the safety, as ROW does not need them, and the US is generally behind on the safety front (ie matrix headlights) anyway.

They were unreasonably expensive, but my sanity is worth it. I have used this company frequently in the past and they do a great job. They order the OEM part and then sand and paint them with your paint code and send them out.

I'm not seeing them on the site. Can you share a direct link?

My order is the first one that they are doing, and they don't have it on their website yet.

I emailed the "contact us" at the bottom of their webpage and then subsequently got a response from: [email protected]

I sent them my car information, specific needs and VIN and color code in the contact us request and they got back to me confirming via a picture depicting the specifics of what they were going to order, and the total pricing. Picture they sent me to confirm the parts below.

They did indicate that they will have to special order them from germany and then will do the painting. Total time of 6-8 weeks. I ordered well before I even got my car.

Hopefully they will get them on the website soon, but they did say the car is too new for them to have gotten to it as of yet.

Historically, the front reflectors get plugged in to prevent any warning lights, but the light does not show through their paint process. No heat issues either.
