Do they work if you have a radar sensor in the front?

you would have to trim it to go around the ACC sensor in center grill. They may offer that as an option, pre trimmed. im not sure.

Zunsport does not require removal of the bumper and after a year there is nothing behind them, no paint rubbing, or interference with the louvers They are made in UK but ship to the US vey quickly. Since they are in front of the louvers they do look different than the rear mounted grills so I think it is a personal preference of which you like.

I believe there are install instructions on their website. If I remember correctly the side grills have mounting tabs that hook behind the bumper lip.

I had the Zunsport grills on my GTS and I remember installing them thinking there was no way they would stay in place with just a few clips holding them in place. I had that car 5 years and they survived weather, track days, and much more without damaging the paint. Really impressive product.

My previous 911 front radiators did get marked up so I wanted to install some screens on my recently delivered TTS and based on the information in this thread I went ahead with the Zunsport. At first I thought I wouldn’t like the looks of them and thought they would look cheap but now that there installed I do like them a lot.

Here they are installed

Looks great! Any side pictures I'd like to see how the Sport pack wheels look against the black?

Here you go, some pictures with different lighting and I can tell you they look even better in person.
I’m happy I went with them and not black.

center and sides installed.
i might have to go with rennline - the zuns caused CEL interfering with the active shutters on my ‘22 Turbo - spent two hours with mechanic on a lift - couldn’t see a way these would be secure and not interfere with shutters - YMMV
