    Installed these many many years ago, 2007, they still look great ! 👍

      I’m genuinely surprised by how good they look. Good to hear they hold up well.

    I saw this video a few months ago and I really wanted to get one of these to my Cayman.
    I’m in UK this week, I bought it with your viewers’ discount which saved me a few £
    Can’t wait to go back to Brazil and install it!
    Thanks Joe!

    Replaced both radiators on my 2007 Boxster a few months ago. I'm hoping they are still undamaged. Just ordered Zunsport grills with your discount code. Cheers, keep on with the vids.

      Great! Zunsport have done well out of my little channel. They should be fine but you do right fitting the covers. Such an expensive thing to repair.

    Really useful. I recently had to pay the local OPC a bunch of money to clean out the back of the grills. I wish I had these fitted. All the others I have seen online are way to complicated to fit.

    Great video Joe …. I had an issue with my air-con which was traced to faulty rads and therefore they required changing! I have toyed with the idea of the protectors but now watching your video I will certainly get some … they seem extremely easy to fit …. which area does the self tapping screw secure itself in to? best wishes with the repair can’t believe how little damage it caused …. lucky! …. looking forward to the next videos 👍

    The prices of these things are insane. Makes no sense. At those prices replacing a radiator is about the same.

    • @JoeTalksCars

      Nah the rads are 1000s to replace. These are a few hundred and clip on. Plus they look great.

    Did this after spending over £500 on new condensers…..did the front and little ones on the rear. Didn’t like the look of the kidney grills so left them off. Zunsport were great on the customer service as well!

    • @JoeTalksCars
      @JoeTalksCars  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah well worth protecting. They cost such a lot and so easily damaged! Agreed with the side ones, tempted to get some to try but not sure on the look.

    Are you still loving your Cayman S? I get people coming up to me asking how much? I have 112k now and it still makes me smile every time driving. Some kid yelled "that shit is fire!". Didn't know what it meant but hold on to your car.

    Edit: if you Google ‘Rennline screens cayman 987’ you will find a set that sit behind the slats ‘Rennline developed the "Original" Radiator protection system with years of proven results
    • Your car's nose already looks perfect, our kits install BEHIND the louvers to retain a desired factory look’
    That’s surely the best ones rather than the Zunsport ones as I think they look terrible. No offence, great video and install but boy do they look nasty.

    • @JoeTalksCars
      @JoeTalksCars  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’ve just looked! They do look really really good. I am happy with the ZUNSPORT ones and yes they do sit infront of the grill but I like it. Really grown on me.

  • @Si-Drive
    @Si-Drive ปีที่แล้ว

    It’s such a strange design flaw from Porsche. For my 981 Cayman, I just bought some matte black aluminium mesh, cut it to size and fed them through the main centre duct with small black cable ties keeping them in place. Cost me £20 and look much better than the ZunSport ones.

    • @JoeTalksCars
      @JoeTalksCars  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s cool! I would have never attempted to make my own 🤣 this was my limit. It’s odd isn’t it how they didn’t think to put these on as standard. It affects all Porsches more or less and I don’t think the mesh makes it look less nice.

  • @VictoryHand
    @VictoryHand ปีที่แล้ว

    That's really interesting about the gearbox radiator. I had wondered why my manual just had this scoop in there. Definitely worth getting the gril on the auto then so I will keep that in mind. I didn't even know gearboxes needed a radiator.

    • @JoeTalksCars
      @JoeTalksCars  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I wasn’t aware until I met an owner with a manual. He liked the way mine appeared to have a proper air feed. Looks better really but more issues if a stone smashes it. Need to get it covered up I think

  • @prof_tim
    @prof_tim ปีที่แล้ว

    I’ve wondered about fitting those; I don’t generally like modifications but I can see the point of protecting the rads /condensers, having had to have new condensers fitted last year… Question is, black or silver?

    • @JoeTalksCars
      @JoeTalksCars  ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m the same! Don’t want to modify it as such but this does offer a huge advantage. Ultimately should prevent a huge bill if a stone was to hit the front. I’d say it depends on the colour of car, I imagine a blue or even red one would look great with silver. Black is just more OEM

      @@JoeTalksCars Meteor Grey. Probably black grilles, I reckon. It is going in tomorrow for a new water pump (always intended to get that done as a preventative measure before it hit 50k miles, didn’t get around to it and at 50.25k miles it has failed … of course … but thankfully I noticed the bearing noise before it let go, so no damage). I’ll think about grilles again once the bank balance has recovered.
