myfirstboxster Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Bought some galvanised mesh from Wickes ( £ 7.50 ) cut it to shape and fixed it to the grills with some countersunk head machine screws (M4 x 12 ) sprayed it matt black , looks ok , not as stylish as the real McCoy but it'll keep the leaves out of the radiators/condensers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfordwill Posted February 15, 2020 Report Share Posted February 15, 2020 I got some blacked aluminium off of eBay for £19.00 and made mine, fixed them with some self tappers when I took the bumper off to give everything a clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the baron Posted February 15, 2020 Report Share Posted February 15, 2020 Ive done this too, great alternative and a tenth of the price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davehods Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 This maybe a really stupid question: on a 986.1 do the bumper vents just pull out rather than needing the bumper off. The paint has flaked off and I need to paint, then I was thinking of adding some mesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bally4563 Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 If I recall they pull out from behind, but others may know differently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the baron Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 You have to take the bumper off to get to the grills unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
