Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

For the money, prefab screens with decent hardware and reviews are probably the best way.

$275, or so, is small potatoes compared to replacing just one radiator or condenser.

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.

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

POST 2Original post

Are you asking about a DIY job? Kind of expensive but I've heard good things about this - http://www.rennline.com/Rennline-Rad...uctinfo/E1004/

POST 3Original post

I did it on the cheap, check out this thread... https://rennlist.com/forums/996-foru...nt-inlets.html

POST 4Original post

I used the Rennline kit on both my 2003 C2 and my 2004 GT3, worked great and has held up well. I'm sure you could make them DIY for cheaper, I was just too lazy.

POST 5Original post

From my experience, the stainless screens are easy to make. The mounting of the screens is the hard part. On my first 996, I installed the Rennline. They are top-of-the-line and have very good instructions. I had extra mounting hardware for 996 #2 because, back two years ago, the center radiator kit was the same price as the standard set. So I bought steel mesh from Paragon to make my own. Tin snips, some pliers and a Sharpie are all you need to make your own. You can pirate some general pattern gouge from the online Rennline instruction pictures. For the money, prefab screens with decent hardware and reviews are probably the best way. $275, or so, is small potatoes compared to replacing just one radiator or condenser. Plus, the screens finish the look that Porsche should have.

POST 6Original post

$12 of black gutter screen. It is good enough for member gt3s, it is good enough for my C2. Guttersupply.com and a decent pair of tin snips. Once it is installed, you can�t tell the difference from the $275 version.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Rennline is the way I am considering to go but I will investigate diy also. Thanks for the comments everyone.
