Finally got around to cutting and installing the front grates to keep the leaves/debris out of the radiators. Bought the black gutter guard from Lowe's and touched up any trimmed edges with black paint. I was very hesitant about using the zip ties but they're barely noticeable.
Replaced engine mount at 60k - the difference is noticeable! Less hesitation off the line on 1st gear and shifting through each gear have more positive feel.
Installed Rennline radiator grills - tired of picking up dry leaves from the center radiator. This should have come standard from the factory like they do now with the 718 GT4/Spyder.

installed radiator grill covers on the 09 Cayman. They really do collect a lot of leaves and debris by the radiator if you don't clean them out or have a cover. This model is from the Radiator Grille Store, other companies make similar, and I've read of people just making their own from gutter cover material from Lowe's/Home Depot. My finished version shows the zip-ties still loose, just have to tighten and trim. Also posted about this on my blog: www.nms-racing.net
