this brings up a question for those of us with this grill. Will Zunsport sell you one piece if needed? I have the GTS grill and after installing I don t see how it could fall out.

Pretty sure if you email them they will send a replacement.

Stick your hand inside. I’ll bet it’s inside the area in front of the radiator.

If you need a replacement you may have to wait a bit as it seems they are out of stock on the black grills and you can't even place an order for them right now. I am planning to order a set and install them while I can only fiddle with my car in the garage or on the soon to be very rare days when it is sunny and warm enough to run my tires. Thinking I need a set of wheels and tires with all weather tires, another thing to add to the list of things owning this Porsche makes me want to buy

I just spoke to a rep last week, as I’ve been wanting a set for a while and they’ve been out of stock. I was told they are changing the design, and the new design will be in stock December 21st. The new set will not be 3 individual pieces that fit in between, but rather one large that covers them entirely. I was sent a photo of their 992 covers as an example.

Can you put the pic up? I am curious as it would seem that in order to install this new design, the bumper cover would have to be removed.
thanks

Thanks for replying and posting the pic. It does look good. Now I wait to find out the installation details. My Christmas present to my Porsche

If I remember correctly, that's the one (3rd from the top) that's a b***h to install and fit. Took me 5 minutes of fiddling with it to get it to stick. But so far after 4 track days, they are all still on. *fingers-crossed*

Default Lost ZunSport Lower Left Front 981 Boxster S


I am so bummed. I seem to have lost my lower left from my 981. About a year ago I lost my lower left rear ZunSport grill (next to the exhaust) and had to order one replacement for that.


Quick Reply: i seem to have lost my lower right zunsport grille :(
