Installation was easy with the bumper off. Decided to go down this route when I shone a torch into the cr4p collection point at the rads.

Do you have any wider shots of the whole front end?
It’s difficult to see how they look on the car with close ups.

I didn't take any but you wouldn't see them from a distance as they are black on a black car with black holes behind. I think they are subtle enough on a black car but maybe lighter coloured cars may not be so unobtrusive?

Yes, very pleased with the quality and fit. Not sure if it would have been so easy to get a good fit with the PU on the car?
There was maybe a crisp bag worth of leaves on the near side and half that on the offside.

PT022016 is the code to use for 20% discount when ordered direct from Zunsport. They are great quality and arrive within a day or two. Pretty sure they do them for 996 so fill your boots

Cool. They certainly look good close up.

Shame they don't do a version where they sit behind the original slats.
Looks like I'll be doing some DIY ones.

This is a pic of them on my Arctic Silver car, switched them onto the Gen 2 when I bought it. They certainly keep the leaves out of the side ducts and the chippings hitting your centre rad.

I did think this prior to fitting but I am very happy with the fit and the fact that they are coated stainless steel was a big plus. They are very good quality and I would not hesitate to fit them again in the future.

I found the Zunsport grilles needed a fair bit of fettling to get them right on my Cayman. Sold them in the end and went for something else.
No brainer in my mind to protect the cards/cons.
OP, looks good!

Cheers!
Mine fitted without any fetling whatsoever but it may have helped that the PU was off the car so I could work from both sides. You get to see what the clips are trying to achieve from inside the PU which helps with locating them.

I printed off a guide from the 'net last year - may have even been this forum. I will see if I can locate it once more and will post a link. It's like anything of this ilk....takes an age the first time you do it but once you know what you are looking for then I am sure it will be a doddle second time round.
After successfully tackling the exhaust and replacing plugs & coil packs not so long ago, the front end was none too tricky.

Bumper off can only be a good thing
