Got some plastic gutter guard from Home Depot ($1.72), cut to size and used a few wire/zip ties to attach them to the front grills.

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.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

Found a small pea sized ding in one of my radiators while polishing the car today. Got some plastic gutter guard from Home Depot ($1.72), cut to size and used a few wire/zip ties to attach them to the front grills. Didn't have the 'stones' to pull the front apart and put metal GG in there. You can easily cut and manipulate the plastic guard, get it behind the grill, with out risk of screwing up anything that wasn't screwed up before-a specialty of mine! Not perfection, (and I'm sure some of you will be cringing), but unless you happen to by lying in front of my car-then you probably wouldn't care-you can't tell its not a stock item. Have read here, that over heating is a potential issue, so will monitor that going forward, but for now temp gauge hasn't budged. Tx again to the forum for all the help and guidance on Porsche 's in general and Cayman 's in particular. Machog

Looks great! Like it came from the factory that way. I guess I'm going to be heading down to Home Depot myself as I hate picking leafs out of the radiator!

Thanks for the tip. I cleaned some leaves and tiny rocks by the radiators and installed gutter guard today.

This was the first thing I did when I got my ride. The dealer suggested it. Very cheap and effective fix to what could be an expensive fix.

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