I used a bodywork adhesive on the edges to fix it. When the 986 is back, I'll be happy to take some pictures of it too, but it's really not rocket science.

I'm not going to get into the discussion about whether it makes sense to retrofit the grille that porsche forgot there because it's too stupid for me. There is not a single disadvantage retrofitting them.
Those look a lot better than the Zunsport ones. The ones mounted on the outside, although easier, look like an afterthought.
