When you install the GT grill, do you change the two side solid pieces at either end of the front part--the sides ? Maybe a picture of how it turns out would help

Jim,
You just change the lid. It is held on at the front by two 10mm bolts. |

Yes a nice piece. The factory 916 double grille is actually cruder! The german chicken wire really looks cheap and it is installed with screws!

George,
I agree, the factory ones were inddeed an odd assortment that were made with what they had on had at the time. A few years back when Porsche was the featured marque at the Monterey Historics, there were six factory GTs - each lid was different and some indeed were a bit rough. |

FS: 914-6 GT Double Engine Grill Replica of the original double grilled 914-6GT engine lid. It is made with original grill material. The cross brace can be lighten or removed (your choice - the lid is a bit more structurally rigid if the cross brace is only lightened - with the cross brace removed, the lid is lighter but the lid tends to flex and may not fit flush against the trunk when closed). The latch and torsion bars are left intact. The lids are painted semi-gloss black (similar to satin black). The lid is $300 plus shipping/packing - cash, cashiers check or Paypal (add 3% for Paypal). I discount a bit if you have stock engine lid(s) and/or grill(s) to exchange. Your core lid(s)/grill(s) needs to be in very nice condition (lid has minimal coats of paint, no dents, nor rust and the mesh on grill has no holes nor deformities). If you are providing a stock lid(s)/grill(s), you are responsible for their packing/shipping to me. More pics and info available upon request, Thanks Sergio (sgmeza-at-sbcglobal.net) Received Sergio's product a couple of weeks ago. Very pleased with it. Larry Caulder |
