One of the many reasons we started Carpokes.

Although 'geezer' hits a little close to home.

Geezer is a state of mind.

Tell that to my knees!

I don't dislike those radiator grilles, but I do have reservations about them. Some have described difficulty installing them without a lot of bending. And some have stated that their grilles have popped out.

Geezer's need something to occupy them and I guess "hating on" radiator grilles might be one of life's less harmful pursuits.

My mental outlook ensures I'll never be a geezer- but as Bama stated, my knees and other parts may contradict me at times.

The grilles are on my to-do list- but some things never make it off mt list!

I have a S so I installed Radiator Grill Store screens for my side intakes only. Those tuck and roll through the plastic slats and I pull them forward and taught with the prepositioned cable ties. Took me maybe 10 minutes total.

Zunsport grills looks super easy for the GTS. They just pop in from the front with the help of a long screwdriver. https://www.zunsport.com/us/Porsche-718 ... grille-set I would painters tape off the nearby contact areas to prevent and scratching first. Maybe those people who have had theirs pop out is because it took a rock impact without them even realizing it which could have cost them several hundred for a new radiator or AC condenser plus down time versus $200 to replace a grill screen. But it looks like you've been lucky for 3 years and maybe you'll continue to be lucky. But even if you never suffer a heat exchanger puncture, those areas will get packed with dirt and debris that compresses into adobe decreasing the efficiency of the radiators over time unless you remove the front bumper and air guides periodically to clean them out.

Put them on immediately in addition to the sides. Can't understand why Porsche doesn't make them standard. Impossible to drive here in the Blue Ridge Mountains (NC) in the fall without them, and two feet of maple leaves on the road..

Where does one order these grills?

Owner of a 2022GTS4.0. Went on Amazon to buy the Zun Sport side grills And center grill. One of the reviews says he has a 2022 GTS 4.0 and the side grills did not fit. He contacted Zun Sport and they admitted that the 2022 does not fit and they are working on a solution. They refunded his money. Any comments?

I found that Amazon sells the CGTS Zunsport grills. Is this the way to go, or order from the UK?

I was thinking the same. Delivery estimate is mid Nov so I suspect may be shipping from UK
