Well done Pete, giving the front an even meaner and smart look 👏

Always a neat video when your doing simple mods to your cars. Great job Sir Pete it looks good

Thanks for showing you improvement. Do not worry about your warranty

Looking very smart now, great improvement Ped, I can't believe Porche didn't fit grills on that model when new.

Good vid Pete, I have the same ones fitted to my 718 Boxster. Have had no issues with them, good airflow, water temp remains the same, definitely keeps out all debris. Porsche had a recent recall for the side intakes, very discreet 👍

Those grills look great, very OEM and subtle. Great work on fitting them too.

Looks good and practical solution to a problem

Excellent demo…last year I had black ones fitted to my cobalt blue Cayman S and, as you say, they are functional and suit the car. Had a stone stuck in the fan but these will prevent a repeat of that. Somewhere on RU-vid is a Zunsport video showing how they are handmade welded but things may have been simplified since then.

Just installed these on my 992 a few months ago…looks great and no more leaves!

Looks so much better and much more peace of mind. The first thing that I fitted to my MX5 was a Zunsport grill.

Reminds me of some of the lock down videos. Nice work. Looks great

Cures a weakness that has been present on all watercooled Porsches since the original 996 and Boxster were launched in the 90s. All the leaves and damp debris that enter the intakes rot out the radiators and the aircon condensers in no time - well worth the effort. 👍👍

These are a great addition for any Porsche, also had the side vents done on mine

Brilliant work Pete! Makes the front look so much better m8. Cheers, John.

Had these on a lot of Porsches - Zunsport used my 991 Cab for a template too. Great guys. Most odd that Porsche dont protect the rads better.

That is a big improvement.Well done.

My 992 recently gave me a £982 bill where I was following a friend in his GT4 too close on the road... A stone flicked up went through one of my radiators. When collecting the car from my Porsche centre and saying "I can't believe I was thinking the other day about fitting those ZunSport Grills, that would have stopped this from happening!", their response "We would void your warrantee if you fit those, the car wouldn't be as it left the factory!" ..... What nice people!

Hello Sir, a very good idea to protect those rads. 👍👍👍🇬🇧

Great video mate👌

Awesome Peter, they definitely look fantastic and really change the look of the front. Great upgrade, well done 😉👌🏻👍🏻

That looks so much better Pete 👍🏻 Can't believe Porsche leave them wide open....! Always had some detritus issue even with fitted OEM grilles on the TTRS & the M3, both of which have bigger mesh holes than your new ones but to leave them open is inviting damage! PS: - we"ll forgive the detailing issues 😄

Just purchased one for my car thank you very much Ped

Enjoying the content as always well done 🎥👌👌

That looks soooooo much better now it looks the nuts and is practical great vid as per usual Ped keep em coming 👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👌👌⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Pete, that's such a great car. I owned 2 997 model Boxsters and loved them both! I know you enjoy driving this car of yours, because its one of the best sports cars in the world. Enjoy!

It does look a lot better.. Practical and smart! 👌🏻

Great addition Pete, I have one fitted to my MX5.

Fitted them to the 997 turbo (£180) almost two years ago. Certainly stop most of the debris from getting at the front three radiators. Noticed though the price has really increased.

Great video, I think it improves the looks too.

They certainly change the look of the car. I’d have put some making tape on the end of the screwdriver personally, but a great job 👏

Fitted them to my 997, they look great as well as protecting the rads 👌

Wonderful job mate 🇦🇺

That’s a great improvement and looks good too.

Sorry not watched your excellent videos for a bit but unfortunately I've been unwell & needed some time in hospital & yes fitting an Zun Sport grill attachment kit is truly easy thing to do & available in Silver Chrome or Black colour version & yes most of my Porsche Owner friends has also fitted these excellent grill to there Cayman, Boxster & even a rare 997 Speedster & just as rare 718 Boxster 25th anniversary edition & yes no more hoovering & cleaning winter bits from that area of your beautiful 718 Boxster GTS branded model car.

That a good snog easy fitting, I look at picking one up using the discount code as my Cayman suffers the same known manufacture error of leaves getting into the radiator. Thanks Pete for sharing!

Impressed, Looks way better with the grills and practical too. What's not to like.

Thanks for this video Peter, I’ve been after a set of these for months now and I appreciate the discount code from your video, top man 👍🏻

Just for added security, before I did a track day at Brands Hatch, I secured the grills with a tiny, barely visible, but VERY strong, black cable tie. A fiddly job, but well worth it, imho!

I have used Zunsport Grills on all my Boxsters owned over the years since 2002. I have the same sports front end as you and fitted these grills 4 years ago to my 718 when the car was new. The gaps are certainly very large on this particular Sports front-end configuration and I also saw the potential of large stones or even a brick getting in the left or right radiators with dire consequences. Zunsport is a great company to deal with. I installed the front grills to my previous new 981 and while driving on holiday in the Italian motorway one of the lower grills departed company without me knowing till I stopped. I had obviously not fitted it securely enough. I called Zunsport and asked them if they could send me a new part. To my amazement when I arrived home from my trip the part was waiting for me FOC. I clean out my radiators every winter, after most of the leaves have fallen, to clear out the small debris that collects there as most of the debris, I believe, becomes acidic and can rot the radiator cores. A tip to removing and refitting the grills is to use a long-nose pliers suitably protected with insulating tape to protect the mesh. I use the pliers to hold the mesh and help ease the grills out for cleaning access and then fit them back into their correct location. It does make it far easier. Well done to you for not using a pliers to insert them all. Great video as ever. Oh, and happy Boxstering. Cheers.

I like the look of it Pete !! Nice addition to protect the rads and really add a bit of style too 👍🏻🇨🇦🍻

Yeah had these fitted to my GTS. Surprising that Porsche do not fit them as standard because its a huge job if those radiators get punctured. Luckily they saw sense with the GT4 and they came as standard on my yellow machine!

very sweet Pete,very nice indeed

Pete. It might be worth checking with your local Porsche dealer as there was a recall on 718 Caymen/Boxters about a year ago to have some grills fitted in the side air intakes. I have a 718 Caymen GTS and took it to my local Porsche dealership to have the grills fitted. Took about an hour and was obviously a no cost fit. Worth confirming the previous owner got it done. 👍

Great video. Just what I need for the front end of my M140i. Will take a look.

Looks great and practical 👏

I love that gts bumper

Yup great choice. Looks slick. Black assents on silver. ❤️👍

Fantastic. I’ve been looking at these. I shall definitely use the 15% discount code. Also looked fairly easy to install. Even for an office type like me 😂. Thank you 👍.

I know they are open for good airflow but great idea fitting the grills as I wouldn't like to pay for a new radiator.

I've got an Alpine A110 on order and it looks like they suffer from a similar problem.... So thanks for making the vid and saving me 15%! Will get one ordered shortly ready for delivery of the new car. I think it spoils the look of the front end slightly (worse on the Alpine than the Porsche), but cleaning out crud on the Alpine looks like even more of a ball ache than the Porsche!

heh Pete very interesting video, i have a new X4 M Comp LCI and the intakes are so big it could swallow a small animal never mind leaves, so went to their web site and took a look, it however transpires that they have not made one yet for my car, so they have enrolled me into their development program, and we have now scheduled to get my car measured up. thanks again and keep up the great content

Just fitted the Zunsport bottom grille on my Ford Puma ST. Same problem, so much guff gets through the onto the radiator with the original Ford set up. Looks far better with the Zunsport on too👍

They do look good PP.... It came to me as you were doing it...... 2 or 3 Cable ties Loosely Looped through the mesh, would mean you could pull to help you guide them into place..... Bit late now but it might help someone watching this..... :-))

A Henry hoover and attachments is ideal for these sorts of jobs, removing rubbish much gentler than blasting with the pressure cleaner and it won't damage your PPF

Sometimes the long vacuum extension will not reach into those intakes. If they do, recommend painters tape around the sharp end of the long vacuum extension to minimize scratching, without sealing the hole of the vacuum of course. If vacuums will not reach and fingers are not long enough, try a powered leaf blower close to the intakes. Blow air at all angles into the intake to blow out all debris. I had leaves, small stones, dust, and even cigarette butts caught in the front and side intakes. Until adding my grills, leaf blowing my intakes was happening every month.

Just ordered the grills for my 991.2 Carrera 4S using your discount code. Thank you!

Just fitted top and bottom for my fiesta St love it even more that I know ped has one one on lady P good enough for ped good enough for me 👌👌👌👌👌👍great vid

Good move, I have also fitted them on mine, our local Porsche dealers are fine with them being on the car, despite some folks reporting otherwise.

A great addition to Lady P. A practical enhancement. 💪 (well done for tackling this by yourself 😂).

Does look OEM nice that! 👏

Glad to see you doing some graft! 😂

Yes, they look great and will stop large stones damaging radiators. But, now not possible suck out all the smaller bits stuck to the radiators.

Phew, that’s a relief, I thought you were going to fit mud flaps! 🤣🤣

Well done Peter as I know you hate fitting bits like this…you need to watch Simon at Powerful U.K. to gain confidence with fitting and removing plastic mouldings on his Defender….he is super brave now! You needed a plastic trim tool rather than a screwdriver as it is less dangerous on the paint. It is a tremendous improvement but strange Porsche dont fit them. SHMEE had exactly the same problem on his AMG GTR and holed a radiator which cost something like £2000+ to fix…😱 If I had a 718 then the order would be in now! Good work!! 😀😀😀😀Richard

For my GTS 4.0, I went with the RGS grills. I find they look a lot more OEM in my opinion. They are probably more difficult to install than the Zunsport but the look is very nice (similar to the GT4/Spyder look). I got my dealer to install them by removing the bumper so no tie-wraps are showing. I also got the grills for the engine side intakes and decided not to pop out the plastic trim myself… good thing I did because one of the clips actually broke off during the process… the dealer had to replace it free of charge. It cost me more than doing it myself but for the price and the look of these cars, it’s well worth it! Good job with your Zunsport grills!

They are great product for the 718, I have them on my CGTS 4.0, I fitted these after a few hundred miles from new, fully agree these should be factory! A Tip for fitting, out f the box pull the tabs back slightly to allow for extra room. Discount of 25% can be done through PCGB They are not a fit and forget though, you'll need to remove annually and still hoover out the grills unfortunately, something on my job list.

That’s a great idea ,,, the grill provide more protection and enhanced the look IMHO.

Fitted them to my 992 after having some damage to condensers, next day a pheasant ran out in front of the car and grilles prevented damage after it hit the offside grille. Without the grilles it would have gone into condenser. Plus they look really good. Should be fitted as standard from factory as on GT cars.

great job, looks so much better like that.

Surely the trim will eventually fret the PFF and paint along the bottom of the grill ? Interesting to see if it rattles as it’s only held on the sides ? Looks good though 👍

I'm considering a 718 and this looks an essential mod. I'm surprise Porsche don't have this as a £1500 option on the configurator 🤣

Good choice to go for the black grilles. I think the chrome ones would’ve stood out like a sore thumb!! Great vid as always Pete.

Definitely looks better with them. Neat product, you wouldn't know they weren't OEM.☺️

Whilst a bit Exy - the cost of radiators far more than the mesh grill. They look great Pete. Well done DIY kit Kudos.

Looks the business Peter 👌 👏

They look super👍 Porsche should fit grills as standard but they enjoy the money to be made on replacement of radiators and condensers after cars are out of warranty😉 everyone I know that has or had a 911, boxster or cayman has had to replace them😬

I made some from Stainless Steel mesh for my 981s.... Should be fitted as standard

nice job 👍🏼

Good vid Pete...yep fitted them to my 718 GTS after I picked it up new....very good and my rads are like new 2 years on! I don't know about your comment "design flaw".....perhaps more a Porsche beancounter's contribution to cost saving initiatives :) Thanks for the entertainment as always.

Looks great and your handyman skills are about as good as mine lol

First time viewer. Very enjoyable man.

Looks a really worthwhile mod. I remember fitting something similar to the Mk2 MX5 I had some years ago, although that was only about £20!. You wonder why they aren't fitted at manufacture, very expensive if a stone pierces a radiator.

Hi Ped Great improvement in aesthetics, and hopefully will prove a good investment against rad damage. Do not understand attitude of Porsche U.K. on warranty.

possibly the best modification l have seen.

Hey thanks for the video Pete , I just used the code 7months later and it works saving me £40. Should prevent the straw in the summer, leaves in the autumn and the cleaning of the M2's rads.

Functional and looks good too, your radiators and intercoolers should deteriorate no where near as fast now

All that deep inside arm action reminds me of James Herriot All Creatures Great and Small, you would have made a hell of a vet Pete. it's not too late, it's not too late..

Looks great also serves a purpose

Hi mate, I think these are a great mod and definitely needed. Although I did watch another chap with a Cayman and it had them fitted. Porsche wouldn’t give him a warranty unless he removed them 🤷🏼‍♂️

Look really nice/oem. Have to admit been tempted but have concerns about the reduced air flow. My solution has been regular pressure washing to blast out the leaves and debris

Looks great,

The right tools (hooked pick etc) would make this entirely easier than it looks being done with the suggested screwdriver.

I would prefer if zunsport made these with a honeycomb pattern like porsche does in the gt4rs.

Just finish’s the car off nice 👍

Have to say Pete that looks so much better. Think is would have used the brush attachment on th Dyson so not to dent the rads!!!!

A good practical mod that can't believe Porsche had nothing there in the first place .

She does look nice that's for sure. But when you announced that you were going to fit the grilles yourself, I inadvertently said "Holy Crepe!"

Nice simple addition that makes Lady P look much better I think. Who needs masking tape eh?!

Evening all 😊
