Asking for a friend...

Is there one available?  He'd like his to look like this.  I would have to agree.

I've got no help, but plus one on a very GRM thread title.

Maybe there isn't a kit available.  I guess lifting Porsche SUV's isn't a thing?

Not cheap and not really a big lift but gives a little lift. I don't think the chassis geometry allows for a lot or lift.

I'm mostly against the idea of lifting a vehicle that's actually dynamically good vs your typical 4wd that doesn't have much to lose. Figure that most of the Cayennes you see at high ride heights have air suspension and are at their max height setting, or possibly over it by fooling ride height sensors. Since air springs don't get taller without also getting stiffer, it's going to function like E36 M3 on the street.  Reference TFL's videos of off-roading a Touareg at its max height for some visual evidence of how operating the air suspension at max height basically also reduces articulation to zero.

It might still be better than a lot of other lifted SUVs but I'm still not fond of it. I'd rather take something thats E36 M3ty street manners seem quaint then take something good and make it bad.

But it looks so good, and it's someone else's Porsche!
