Did mine with some silver grill because I wanted to have some contrast with the black paint and black vent and black everything.

I am very happy with it as it give a more agressive look and also one of the cheapest mod possible for the car (30$/€ at hardware store)

I did it without removing the bumper but you have to have some flexible arms ^^

That does look kinda nice! I want to be able to quickly remove to vacuum any crap that might have slipped through without having to remove the bumper. So zip ties behind the bumper may be a good solution I guess. I was just trying to keep from having to remove the bumper to create a template.

For the template you can use some paper and draw the air intake for the outside of the bumper then you add a quarter inch all around and you are good to go ;-)

Thanks man.
What about the sharp edges after being cut? Is there a way to line the edges so they don't scratch anything if they come off or get skewed?

Eric, Thanks. I did not see an option for the 997.2 turbo/S I assume they are the same as the regular Carrera 4S and other base models correct?
Do you have a picture of the finished product not in the car?

Hello Gene, we do not have a product for the 997.2 turbo as of yet. Hopefully soon!

Well hell..... I didn't hear back so just ordered the regular ones. Can you cancel my order?
