"So what had happened was..." Strange situation that I thought I would share. So initially I opt'd out of purchasing the GTS engine cover grille. Just couldn't foresee myself paying nearly $1700. Decided to use the money for yellow seat belts, etc. Little did I know, my better half was reading my posts and monitoring all cosmetic decisions....hmmm!!! Anyhow, this morning an email was fwd to me by the wife from UPS stating that a 7lb package, from Suncoast, is scheduled for a pm arrival today. Could it be...NO! When I asked the wife what was arriving, she just said, "so what had happened was....you will see". The suspense is killing me. No going to get my hopes up BUT, if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, arguably it's a duck (insert emjoi). Wish me Porsche luck, team.
Just remember...happy wife...happy life! Thank her it that grille shows up tomorrow!
Anyone else notice improved engine sound after this upgrade?! Wow, nice surprise there - once the car comes on power the additional rasp and volume is noticeable even with flaps closed.
Gents, sorry for reviving an old thread, but I have a GTS grill for sale. Had it on my 911 4S for the last 6 months. I'm letting it go for $ 1,050 shipped in CONUS. Paid over $ 1,400 at Carlsen Porsche.
It's listed on Panjo at $ 1,000 for local pickup if you're in the Bay Area. Mounted on my C4S 991.1
A GTS grille just popped up on Panjo for $1,100 if anyone is still looking for one of these. It's still a bit expensive for a plastic cover, but not bad considering what they often go for.
The grill is in great condition, and ready to go to a good home...
I see now that you posted your listing a little up from mine on the thread. Sorry I missed that.
I'm also sorry that I pulled the trigger and bought a grille about a month ago when I would have probably been much happier with yours. I'm actually going through some issues with the seller because my grille arrived broken and he seems not to care in the slightest... even though the damage appears to be solely from his lack of appropriate packaging. I've reached out to the site admins for advice on two separate occasions and have yet to get a response. It's quite frustrating.
If its a 991.1 yes it will. Did the same swapout last year. Easy to do...took me 1/2 hour taking my time and swapping out the clear brake light. Here's a few pics of my job to give you perspective. My car is a 2013 Carrera S (991.1) Definitely looks great tho IMHO but yes is purely aesthetic mod tho. I'd go for it if I didn't already have one...they don't pop up often for sale used at a discount and most folks like me who've done it have paid MSRP. Just saying! Good luck tho!
