GT3 Bumper Screen Install, DIY

[clord]

The DIY Loren refers to is for 996 GT3 intake screens...... Since you posted in the 997 GT3 forum, I'll assume you have a 997 GT3. Note that there will be differences in the 997 bumper and screens. If you DO have a 996 GT3, let me know. I can provide additional help AND have screens available.

You can get a set for the 997 GT 3 from Carnewal in Europe. Overpriced, but they work and look right.

I just ordered some from The Racers Group. I have a 997 w/aerokit (s/a GT3) and was having the same problems. These are not cheap either ($100 @).

I received my screens in the mail yesterday. They are very nice, and they should be!! Does anyone know if the outside radiator ducts on a 997 aero kit are the same size as the GT3 ducts? I may have screwed up! Also noticed today that GT# screens are on eBay, $80!!!!!!

A low-tech but effective method I heard from a respected race shop mechanic is to get some furnace filter and cut to match contour of the front face side of elements to be protected, i.e., radiator surface.

I am told this does not impede air flow yet will protect the radiators.

I'll try this in the Spring, but will likely also get the Carnewale grills.

IS DONE!!! bought some aluminum grille, took the front part off, put the grille around the air ducts, fixed the nose again and is done!!!!!

About a year ago, I installed some window safety netting from Bobby Archor in dallas at his suggestion. It's a poly carbonite so rubber doesn't stick to it on track. It's hot here and i had NO temp problems and the radiators look like new, I now 3 other drivers who've done the same thing successfully,

Those screens look like a better fit than the ones from Porsche Motorsports!

I ordered a set of screens from Carneval, I think they are from Carcarphics (correct me if I am wrong). At first, reading some messages at this website, I thought this will be impossible. Well, I already made some alternative screens. Luckily my friend, a car freak by nature, visited me this afternoon, and with him we found a way to fit the screens without any modifications, keeping all original air ducts intact. Very nice indeed.
