Should be a single white thread. Close enough...

@Borg1of5 Congrats!, it looks great, so what's next, off to drive it or off to the installer for a little TLC and film?

Looking at Borgs pictures, does the 718 come with mesh/screens in the three front inlets now? Because that would be a huge improvement over the wide open front fascia on the 981 which allows all kinds of bugs/rocks/debris to get stuck in the radiators and collect inside the front bumper.

Yes the 718 GT4/Spyder both come with mesh covers over the 3 inlet openings, but so did the 981 GT4/Spyder...

Ahh okay, so it's a top-of-the-line model feature, I dig it. The 981 I was referencing was my Cayman GTS, so this makes sense...

Same with my GTS, but you know the good part was you could easily clean out those openings, with the GT4/Spyder inlets all covered if you can't flush out the debris you have to remove the entire bumper to clean things up, minimally once or twice a year.

Oh mannn, that's a headache they fail to mention in the ads/reviews! Thanks for putting this out there.

Drove up the Crest today. I had to turn around early at this shoulder. Fire hellicopter landed on the road just ahead. Looked like a bad accident. Hope everyone will be ok.
