    It’s so rare to find a diy video that is super useful and doesn’t have a 5 min intro

    This is what we really want to see. People who actually work on their Porsche and make custom parts by the materials from local hardware stores.
    This is one of those few Porsche drivers that I respect.
    Besides, a very good and informative video. Im giving this one a like.

      Im in the same situation, I have a 986.1 with a 986.2 bumper. I dont have the bumper trim and scalpers are asking wayyy to much for a simple plastic part. Gonna make my own with hex pattern abs mesh.

    nice hack on putting a packing tape on the grill for the line for cutting.

    Great video. I admire your continuous mention of your dad. There's nothing in the world like a father and son relationship. I just subscribed to your channel and I look forward to more videos from you in the future. The grill by the way turned out nice.

    @suncheeyan Před 4 lety +20

    Thanks Alex, this is one of the best vids of home made grills I've seen so far! No BS and straight to the point and I'm going to try out your technique

  • @franzcapones
    @franzcapones Před 6 lety +20

    Wow never thought of this! Looks a lot easier than removing the whole bumper and cutting off some parts of it. I will give this a shot. Thank you!

  • @desparky
    @desparky Před 6 lety +9

    Nice job, nice car. I love the colour. There's a lot of haters here. My only criticism would be that I would have put some sort of protective film on the original grill parts to protect the front face of them from rubbing on the mesh. Then if you later take it off and go back to original there'll be no sign that it was there. Great to see a dad and son getting creative. Worth more than the car itself.

  • @tinuthomas531
    @tinuthomas531 Před 3 lety +1

    This is actually one of the best videos I’ve seen on this. I thought the only option would be to cut the grille out and use fiberglass and bondo to install one of these grilles. Screw the hate, this is an amazing mod for any car

  • @andrewparker2751
    @andrewparker2751 Před měsícem

    Looks great, and great vid. Love the explanation and prep work, too.
    A grille like this will help protect your AC condenser (radiator is usually behind the condenser)- something Honda owners should take note of.

  • @Spta97Vids
    @Spta97Vids Před rokem

    Great vid - thanks for posting. Thinking about doing this for my BMW to prevent leaves from getting in. Problem is if the mesh is too large small leaves will get in - and once the mesh is installed you have to take it off to get them out.
    Have you had any debris get in there with the mesh installed?

  • @401Impala
    @401Impala Před 3 lety +1

    Came out pretty good. Future tip, any time you're making a template of something symmetrical, you only have to get one side correct then you use that template to make the other side an exact replica. No neet to trace out and template the left and right side, theyre both the same :)
