Most of this stuff was between, indicating that some cleaning may well have been done previously but without removing the front bumper (which isn't all that difficult)

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.

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

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

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

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Has anyone every used this mesh grille company? I liked the fact they were installed in front without removing the bumper. http://www.zunsport.co.uk/porsche-ca...rille-set-p230 Second question...what do you think, stainless or black on an Artic Silver C2?

POST 2Original post

Never seen this one before, but I do like the idea, for sure. Especially, the outside, easier (?) install. My choice would be black, of course....is there a US distributor, or only available in the UK, as I am interested.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I read some positive reviews on the 997 boards. I also found a coupon code ZU041510 that worked for 15% off. I took the plunge for the stainless...figure if it looks like hell I will paint black. Couldn't find any local suppliers that had the 996 ones in stock. All in including shipping was $222.

Haha, the best part was the guy that gave me the idea on this supplier was 64 years old! Plus, this white boy is rollin' on factory 17s and lovin every minute!

POST 7Original post

I bought my mesh screens from Pep Boys. They are aluminum for about $40. Then I took them and had them powder coated flat black. I pick them up tomorrow or Tuesday I'll post an after photo. I would also suggest McNichols Aluminum mesh @ www.mcnichols.com

POST 9Original post

DB, did you get it in the US? Cost? Easy fitment?

POST 10Original post

I bought directly from ZunSport via web page. They are UK based. http://www.zunsport.co.uk/porsche-ca...rille-set-p163 Cost was less than $150, don't remember exact price, but the fit very nice, just pop in.

POST 11Original post

I'm in, ordered (black one) last night. We'll see how long it takes to get here and what they look like once they arrive and installed. I will take a pix, too. This is a perfect way to keep out leaves, rocks and track debris.

POST 12Original post

Shipping from the UK took a bit more than one week, but am happy with the ZunSport grills.

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just installed yesterday! I must say I like them very much and I think the stainless looks sharp with the Artic Silver. Took a total of 5 minutes to install and I'm quite pleased! Amazingly, it shipped in only 4 days from the UK. photo 1.jpg photo 2.jpg photo 3.jpg

POST 14Original post

Got mine in three days from Zunsport, nice product, easy install, hopefully will keep some crap out in front of the radiators. 996 is ten yrs old and had 2 handfuls of leaves, dirt, butts.

POST 15Original post

Think about it first Do you really think that the Screen won't block some of the air-flow ? Even if each strand is 1/16 Add them all up and that's the Size of your blockage This is a stupid car trick

POST 16Original post

Got mine, (FEDEX) from UK in about 4 days, excellent service! As others have said, super easy install. I added a zip tie, not the prettiest, but need to make sure they don't come off at the track. pix to follow. Thankx for the heads up!

POST 21Original post

Here is my 2003 with zunsport grill in matte black. I ordered http://www.zunsport.com/ in the uk and have to say that their customer services are world class. I ordered the pre-facelift version by mistake and after explaining what I needed they sent me the right face-lifted version on a exchange basis. Excellent services! ps. and personally I think it looks great .....

POST 22Original post

Quotes source post: 10403189

wow, not all that aesthetically pleasing.

POST 23 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I keep going back and forth. Sometimes I like the look and then other times I'm ready to paint it flat black or remove. I just don't love the front of the car with nothing. At least if I change my mind it takes 15 seconds to remove!

POST 24Original post

This type of mod is all personal taste. I personally think it looks better without them not to mention you will be blocking some of the air flow. If you worried about debris building up on the rads just clean them once/year. If your looking to change the look of the front end maybe invest in the aero front bumper. In my opinion the aero bumper looks much better.

POST 25Original post

Quotes source post: 10404453

That's not exactly the way aerodynamics works. The devil is in the details with regards to the obstruction and distance from obstruction to where its measured. Some obstructions actually increase or decrease airflow, depending upon the size and shape. I'd wait to hear back from owners who have done this in a hot environment to see what their observed results are. I suspect it doesn't do too much, either way, and is a pure aesthetic.

POST 26Original post

Are you guys doing this for looks or function? What are you guys trying to keep out?

POST 27Original post

I think is a combination of both..... This is what I found about a month ago:

POST 28Original post

Hmmm, where are you guys driving? My rads fins stay clean. I do like the black ones better than the SS.

POST 29Original post

word here on the forums is that you're not driving at all ?

POST 30 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Had a change of heart on those silver grille inserts, the more I stared at them, they tackier they looked. Decided to paint them anthracite. Much cleaner now in my opinion. These pics aren't that great, but in person it's unique while still being discrete.

POST 32 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks, I used the same color that I did on the rims, gives it a nice affect. To complete, I may do the exhaust tips.

POST 33Original post

like it better this way as well. still considering buying the black ones from zunsport. for the exhaust tips, not sure plastidip will do well on them...? (heat)

POST 34 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It's rated to 200 degrees, so it should be OK in that location...we'll soon see!!

POST 35Original post

Quotes source post: 10645883

your tips should get hotter than that if you drive your car correctly!

POST 36Original post

I got the rennline kit. Wiremesh looks great but pricey @ $275 and requires removing the bumper since they install from behind.

POST 37Original post

I just ordered a set in black and used ZU042010 promo code for a 20% discount. Total price to USA after discount and with shipping was $185. ( If I am charged duty I will adjust final price)

POST 40Original post

Quotes source post: 10563425

100% agree. The grill plates may go well with a spatula, though.

POST 41Original post

Spatulas only go well with other spatulas . It's an insider thing you wouldn't understand

I'll keep that in mind, and will be sure to post appropriate warning signs.

Dead effin right I do. Grills and DRLS total cost $14 YES you read correctly $14 total cost. They are stainless and have been in there at least a year now. The gutter guards I got from a local hardware store and not Home Depo. Some of you guys have more money than sense.

exactly the same material the gutter guards people are using. One day I may do the middle part for another $5. I didn't see much point at the time as that part is not an air intake.

POST 51Original post

Just finished mine with the inclusion of LED DRL's. ....and illuminated DRL's.... .....and here's 12 years worth of debris that was in front of and between the radiator and condenser. Most of this stuff was between, indicating that some cleaning may well have been done previously but without removing the front bumper (which isn't all that difficult)

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