Default Radiator protection - Rennline or Zunsport or ???

I know there must be plenty of threads on this subject, but I didn't have much luck using the search function.

I'd like to hear recommendations on either Rennline and Zunsport radiator protection. Or any other good grill mesh. Pictures would be most helpful also.

Thanks!

I used the ones from Radiator Grill Store on my 991.2 GTS. Very pleased.

@Judd McPherson The grills really look great. I like them, ... I just looked them up on their website and no center grill section is offered for the Turbo.

I used Rennline on my 997.2 C4S and chose them since they sit behind the fins and seem more secure (I also like the mesh design over the Zunsport) but Rennline does require a front bumper removal for installation, which is a little more involved on a 991 (especially with aerokit but I'm planning on using Rennline again on my 991.2 TTS.

@Greg2010 Yes, the front bumper cover removal is diffidently a consideration.

Have had Zunsports for 4 years now. Look good and no issues. Pretty easy DIY - easier if you have a helper. I have the ACC ones. 991.1TT.

Got the zunsport, didn't like them at all. They are now just sitting in a box somewhere.

I just purchased my first Porsche about 45 days ago, it has the aerokit (I think)… I am planning on doing the rennline front grills, planning on replacing a faulty outer PDC sensor while in there (I hope that is the issue) … anyway, what is different on front bumper removal with aerokit?

The same except for a couple of extra screws securing the small vertical spoilers.
