michelin Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 I'll probably go for a set of these on the front but the dilemma is the colour??? My car is platinum silver so do I go for the brushed steel or plain old black??? Any pics or opinions greatly received. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Joseph Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Hi, @michelin. Simple question, easy answer! Black is discreet and OEM looking: Silver makes them look a bit "homemade" IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike597 Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 BLACK! Like the endless blackness of space, that leads to the chasm of clams! My eyes! My eyes! Are pies! And yours are lies, all lies! They're here! They're here! They've landed on the pier! Oh yes, what shall we do with Father, Mother? Fold him like a ticket and poke him in a hole? BLACK! BLACK! BLACK!

michelin Posted March 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 I've just received an email from Peter Langston @ Zunsport. Here is a discount code for those interested in a set of grilles: PT022016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelin Posted March 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 The other question now is just outer grilles or a full front set to include the centre???? Something is lending me to just the outers as not having the centre one emphasises the outer more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purdie Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Gotta be black. How much does the above code give you as a discount? I think there is a 20% one floating about - worth a search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelin Posted March 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Apologies, 20% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the centre grill on the last one and whilst cosmetically better, you have to screw in place with 2 screws. So I left them on my old one when I part exchanged the car. I will only be putting the outer grills on my new car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason3.2s Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Are threre any OPC's that see that the Zunsports void the warranty on the car. I remember reading that someone mentioned an OPC Manager saying not a problem but is anyone aware of which (if any) say its a no no? I am fed up with the leaves in the 981 radiator and also had to get new condensers on my previous 987 due to leaves and stones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcornet Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 I've had my car looked at OPC Hatfield and Reading, neither raised a concern. Hatfield performed warranty work (not related to rads/engine) without a problem. Reading only raised that it had them at part exchange time and said they were a great idea as it kept the radiators clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mneil Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Full set. Think it looks half finished otherwise. Never had a problem with them on the car, keeps those rads safe.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to OPC Colchester, it's only an issue if you're having the 111 point check when looking to extend your warranty. My 981 recently had its first service there with the grilles fitted without any problems. Like you. I had to replace the condensers on my 987 because of stone damage. Zunsports are a must!

I only fitted the outer grilles because a) they're completely reversible, with no holes to drill, and I'm a bit tight! Seriously, I don't think it looks at all odd not having the middle one, but that's just a matter of personal taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to use a picture hosting service such as Imgur. Download the App or visit their website and open an account. Upload your picture, then use the "direct link" option, putting the link into your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topradio Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Black is the only way to go, silver looks a little Halfords. I think you only need the outers, fitting the whole set, especially if also fitting the side ones, looks like you are trying too hard IMO. I did hear that not emptying the ashtray invalidated the warranty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
