eldavo69 Posted June 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 I had a day off and some time to spare so decided to fit some bumper mesh to protect the radiators and aircon condensers. Due to their location they get stuffed up with leaves and dirt and rot out - the previous owner had replaced the aircon condensers for this exact reason - so I figured it made sense to whip the bumper off, give everything a clean out and fit some mesh to the back of the bumper. ZunSport makes a kit that just clips in from the front of the bumper but it’s about £160 and sticks out like a particularly ugly sore thumb. Far more subtle if you put some mesh in behind the bumper - and far cheaper, less than £30 all in for the bits. There are thick black plastic tabs around the cutouts that you can screw into without fear of damaging the actual bumper so it was a relatively quick and straightforward job! Took the opportunity to remove the front arch liners and clean them up and everything behind too - then even some trim gel on the air ducts you’ll never see - just because.

eldavo69 Posted June 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) Wow - a year since I updated this thread! Didn’t go to the Nurburgring (ended up in hospital instead), replaced a load of brake hard lines, did a trip round Scotland, had a big service, new tyres, general bits and bobs. Was supposed to be selling it last weekend but the guy came down, loved the car, the paperwork, everything but it hurt him to drive it as he has to have an Achilles operation on his left foot so can’t drive a manual. Given my car had a recent clutch and it’s the lightest of all the ones I’ve driven - the mind boggles! Oh well, at least it’s clean - anyone want a properly sorted 996?

cruiser647 Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 You might have thought he'd know he can't/shouldn't drive a manual..... Oh well. People! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
