Chris I used windscreen adhesive on mine, no screws just a couple of cable ties to hold it in place while it cured.

Did you just use sealant without any screws to hold the grills in place?

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All What are people"s opinions on radiator grills as it looks like I am going to have to have my radar replaced. What are the best ones to fit?. Thanks Jonathan

POST 2Original post

Silly ar$e Daren, I'm sure he means radar detector, or diffuser. Jonathan, as far as I know, Zunsport are about the best ready-mades, but most of us make them ourselves for a fraction of the cost. There are a couple of DIYs in the Technical Articles section.

POST 3Original post

Zunsport as mentioned. Fitted to my Cayman S Sport in less than 5 mins 1 scewdriver needed to fit. Easy quick and smart. Cliff.

POST 4Original post

I have the Zunsports fitted. Love them! They protect the radiator and they make the car look more modern too.

POST 5Original post

I've done both - 5 minutes of fitting Zunsports and 2 hours of DIY cutting and gluing. Both give good results but the latter is a fraction of the price and dare I say, looks a more professional and OE finish.

POST 6Original post

+1 for Zunsport.... Neil & I have compared our cars & agree it makes them look more modern & 'beefy'..... 100% better protection too! Wake up Porsche but then I guess they would loose fortunes in revenue[ ]. 15% discount code: 1006 21185 paul

POST 7Original post

DIY. Takes less than half hour to remove bumper......£20 from Halfords and £1 clear sealant....a little bit of patience.....fantastic results at a fraction of the cost. Did mine last year and they still look new. By the way...make sure you snip out a small section of the duct at the back to further prevent the gathering of leaves and dirt. I think steve put some pictures on an earlier thread. Good luck

POST 8Original post

Did you just use sealant without any screws to hold the grills in place?

POST 9Original post

Chris I used windscreen adhesive on mine, no screws just a couple of cable ties to hold it in place while it cured. Neat job and keeps the car looking original.

POST 10Original post

Yes Christ, you don't need to use screws, just plenty of clear sealant. My wife put up with the bumper sitting in our living room over night. Once cut, leave enough to bend over the edges, then place some heavy weights on the grille itself to hold tight whilst the sealant sets. If you look at my previous posts Im sure I posted pictures.

POST 11Original post

There is a write up I did in the 996 Technical section giving an indication on how to do it.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
