New to this Turbo forum.
Just got a 14 Turbo S and absolutely love it.

However, I have noticed that the center front radiator is exposed and seems to accumulate grass and leaves.
What is the consensus on this - Add some kind of mesh grill or leave bare??

Found this but is overseas -

Not even a question....with the grilles. It a function of saving your radiators. It cost me 1500 bucks to come to that conclusion.

Also GFROMAN I am in DFW as well although on the other side of metroplex but happy to show you the Rennline grilles installed by John Gladwell at Porsche Plano.

How difficult is it to remove the front bumper? Wondering if it's easier to just go with the zunsport grills.

I took my guy just over two hours to install the rennline screens and if I recall, by just using a screwdriver.

If your TTS is just a garage queen, then there is no need for the mesh screens.
Otherwise 1 Rock can cause a damaged radiator or a/c heat exchanger!

Does anyone have experience with the Zunsport grills? Says they are a no bumper removal 15 minute install.

This looks like a great idea and precaution, but while the mesh has lots of holes, it has lots of surface area too....do these allow enough moving air to properly cool??

Simple 30 minute job.
It took me a little longer due to the fact that I had to remove and then reinstall the laser sensors.
Happy with the results!

Amazon has them listed in US$. Still aren't available for 991.2 TTS. I left them a request for Gen 2 grills.
