The center blank with the cap looks good too. It's just a black area that falls into the background.

If doing all the work for the center mesh and trim, what's another $600 for the radiator? That's my take.

I also agree about the stealth looking nature of the Rennline mesh. It's inset more because of the bumper design and doesn't stick out like the GT cars. Any mesh will have its little things to deal with. The GT owners get stones stuck in the mesh and even small dents. Good news is these pieces are replaceable as they are on the GT cars. With the Rennline not being flush with the bumper like the GT cars protects them a bit more.

Anyway, a great mod overall!!

 

Look at all this dead space in the center area. Really want that catching all that air a false vent would create??

Look at the side radiators and the plastic sleeves that direct air flow.

 

For ref.

 

Is it possible not to reinstall those two plastic slats on the sides and only have the mesh like the GT3?

 

Probably.

The slats are attached to a small frame that frames the bumper opening.

Could probably remove and fab some mesh.

 

These cars look cool without their bumpers, hah...

 

Yes, but only when they are taken off voluntarily.

 

I finally did this. Man, that connector for the driving lights underneath the headlight platform is BRUTAL! One side just didn't want to go, but I finally got it by sacrificing my fingers. I wonder if the dealer removes the wheels and the whole plastic wheel well cover to get in there more easily. The Rennline product is pretty good. The center mesh is bolted through the plastic, so you see a small black screw head on the outside. Not perfect, but it doesn't bother me. I've heard someone used epoxy on the inside instead of the bolts. It's nice to have the screens there. I only have 2900 miles on my car so far, but there is already plenty of junk in and around the radiator fins.

 

yes, Mark
