I wish my GT3 came without centerlocks!

Beautiful car for a great price. Congrats.

If you mean "from Porsche", then yeah, they can't co-exist. But if you mean, "don't fit", then you're in luck. They fit together fine, as evidenced by my car:

Thank you! For me yours falls into that category of "Very glad they exist, delighted to see them on the street occasionally, love the look, but couldn't rock it myself." This includes Lava Orange as well. I wish there were more of these colors driving around.

LOL, I bought the car with duck (see avatar) and added the grill myself. Easy 20-minute installation (because I was paranoid and careful.) It would take 10 if I did one again. The part that was hard was holding in my hand the piece of black plastic I had just paid $1300 for.

I noticed that a LO GTS was still at Porsche Atlanta Perimeter, the Atlanta dealer that I don't use but that is on my drive so I see their inventory. I first saw the car in the showroom late last year, iirc, maybe early this year, on a Sunday afternoon when they were closed. Figured it would be gone by Monday morning. Stunning look. And congrats on yours!

I recently called up couple of service people and they both told me that "Porsche doesn't recommend doing this." The service guys don't know if it has to do w/ aero or heating issues as Porsche was not clear w/ their recommendation. I am also worried for possible warranty issues down the road?

Really sucks as I want to keep the black grill and get the duck

That is typical BS. One of the members ordered a rennsport edition with duck and black grill from the factory, no problems. The picture was posted about a month ago
