Let's have a little fun here and not take things so personally. Getting offended by someone having a different opinion on cars is pretty petty. Are we that thin skinned?? Sometimes we should be able to laugh at stuff without getting worked up.
If that's all it was but there was plenty more. A year ago he tooks pics from my album (now empty) and made a mocking video of my car and home. He kept using it and has been on my ban list ever since.

Yes, sometimes things go a bit too far in your case. The back and forth about what's best gets old quick. Everyone is a big boy here with many even pushing or in retirement. Let's act like it

R_Rated will most likely be back soon and can speak for himself. I've seen him posting on 6Speed a bit. I rarely visit there. Has become a ghost town.

That was your car he used, not his own? That was pretty ballsy.

Now to source a set of Michelin PS4's once the P Zero tread is fully done on these. Now for Spring to arrive...its getting restless here in the Midwest with all this snow!


Beautiful. The color combo really sets off the car

Thanks Midwesterner; I think so also...almost as if it came off the factory line from Porsche with the car to the naked eye.

These look great! And by the looks of it, no bumper removal is necessary? I like how they protect the movable louvers in the process. Did you buy them direct from the UK vendor or someone in the US? And if you don't mind; how much are they?

I'd love to put some of these on my car! I can't believe how much crap gets in there. I've had the car less than a month and there's a ton of leaves and other crud in there.

Thanks!

Hi Tony,

Zunsport is a great company to work with. The grills were shipped from the UK and arrived in two days. Bumpers were not removed for installation which took all of ~ twenty minutes. The grills are of good quality and I'm very satisfied with the look. Check the Zunsport site for information on pricing and a short video on installation. Be sure you're on the "US ENGLISH - US DOLLAR" page. FYI, my car is a 911.2 GTS. As such, there are NO movable louvers. Not sure if it makes a difference or not.

Ah! I was hoping for a solution that did not require bumper removal....but since the bumper will need to be removed I may as well install the AL Priority Shifter system at the same time.....and while I'm there it would be so much easier to fit flat black colored headlight washer covers.

Function First **** with the GT4 Shifter - it took about 45 minutes total to pull out the old one and install this one. Feels great - although the difference is not as pronounced as I thought it would be.

I believe the chrome/stock tips have a bolt that secures them to the muffler (from the underside of the tips). That paint posted by the guy that did it seems to have built in primer and heat resistant, so it goes on simply by spraying multiple coats.

What type of prep was done to chrome tips?
Can says good for temps up to 500 F. Does anyone know the exhaust temperature at the tips?
