Finally got the grille from getPorschepart and installed in 20mins, totally change the look which is a bit more classy as a 993 or 964.

Ready to pull the trigger on one of these as the stock louvers are really starting to bother me. Anybody know of any new/similar options (or a discount code)?

I finally got around to this. Matches my black lettering perfectly.
Steep price for plastic, but since its essentially my only exterior mod (outside of wheels), its worth it.

Hey guys, need some advice.
One of my best friends has a 991.1 GTS (I convinced him to buy it thank you very much).
Unfortunately one of the grills on his engine decklid came off and is long gone.
The very bottom one.

I know its a long shot but any advice on how to find an individual grill?

Thanks

No news on this? A lot of us 991.1 owners would buy a aftermarket option for the mentioned 600-900$

If my car doesn't sell as is, I'll likely list mine for sale around 1k even.

Not to be a Debby Downer here, but I did see a few people adding a GTS grille to a ducktail... When you get the ducktail option on the GTS, it then only comes with the wide finned grille from the factory. The GTS grille is a cooling mess with the ductail I've heard. Even on Suncoast's site it clearly shows and states that if you add the spoiler to the GTS you have to change the grille as well. May seem fine from the outside but i'm sure there are long term implications... Porsche did that for a reason, and I'm sure warns you about it again for that same reason. Who knows.

So following this thread as best I can, can anyone comfirm this GTS part will fit the 991.1 S Cab? If so, I believe its a relatively simple swap...I am people told by Porsche dealerships once the part is purchased its not returnable so am OK paying but not to have it sit on the workbench until I never get it on ebay.

Part Number 991-512-331-21-OK1
Part Name Ventilation Grille Black Mat

Available for "as low as" $1,250 from Guadin in Las Vegas.

That price sounds too low. I am not sure that's the right one? Suncoast is selling it for $1750 and its ~2200 retail.

I wonder if its the wrong part number.

Correct one: https://www.getporschesilverspringpa...99151233111ok1
