Mesh Grille Suggestions
Has anyone every used this mesh grille company? I liked the fact they were installed in front without removing the bumper.

Second question...what do you think, stainless or black on an Artic Silver C2?

Never seen this one before, but I do like the idea, for sure. Especially, the outside, easier (?) install. My choice would be black, of course....is there a US distributor, or only available in the UK, as I am interested.

I read some positive reviews on the 997 boards. I also found a coupon code ZU041510 that worked for 15% off. I took the plunge for the stainless...figure if it looks like hell I will paint black.
Couldn't find any local suppliers that had the 996 ones in stock. All in including shipping was $222.

Haha, the best part was the guy that gave me the idea on this supplier was 64 years old! Plus, this white boy is rollin' on factory 17s and lovin every minute!

I bought my mesh screens from Pep Boys. They are aluminum for about $40. Then I took them and had them powder coated flat black. I pick them up tomorrow or Tuesday I'll post an after photo.
I would also suggest McNichols Aluminum mesh @ www.mcnichols.com

I bought directly from ZunSport via web page. They are UK based.

Cost was less than $150, don't remember exact price, but the fit very nice, just pop in.

I'm in, ordered (black one) last night. We'll see how long it takes to get here and what they look like once they arrive and installed. I will take a pix, too. This is a perfect way to keep out leaves, rocks and track debris.

Just installed yesterday! I must say I like them very much and I think the stainless looks sharp with the Artic Silver. Took a total of 5 minutes to install and I'm quite pleased! Amazingly, it shipped in only 4 days from the UK.

Got mine in three days from Zunsport, nice product, easy install, hopefully will keep some crap out in front of the radiators. 996 is ten yrs old and had 2 handfuls of leaves, dirt, butts.

Think about it first
Do you really think that the
Screen won't block some of the air-flow ?
Even if each strand is 1/16
Add them all up and that's the
Size of your blockage
This is a stupid car trick
