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.

[@HomerTheAckbar]

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.

[@ChunkBronson]

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

[@MrGetBad4u]

You have a kick ass dad! That's what dads should do with their kids!

[@jyeelliott733]

bruh it was my birthday yesterday and my dad don’t even text to say happy birthday

[@philhode5104]

Thats what I was thinking, look after each other, good vid,going to do this on my saab convertible

[@cid4887]

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

[@suncheeyan]

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

[@jaypee850]

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.

[@tinuthomas531]

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

[@franzcapones]

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]

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.

[@andrewparker2751]

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.

[@BCO216]

This is absolutely the best video I've seen for making a mesh grill. You all made it, make sense.

[@oldguy8177able]

you guys missing the point he's used his imagination to create something and execute it

[@radior28]

That's why I love YT. I need to find something.... Bam you have done it before and made my life easier 😜 Thanks mate.

[@401Impala]

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 :)

[@WadeWilson-]

You and your dad? That's cool. I miss making some car stuff with my dad.

[@danny-vb8bg]

Dude that looks really freaking good. That trim You put on it just brings it all together.

[@MarkoMirkovic]

I have similar grey lines under honeycomb. I just painted them black with plastidip, and now it looks awesome.

[@fashionconnoisseur8618]

You can’t even see the zip ties wtf these bird brains talking about....no practice. Clever idea bro love it 😍

[@jomission5793]

Very nice, pretty cool doing projects with the old man... good times, miss them alot

[@WeylandProductions]

I think this is so creative! A simple and easy way for anyone to make a badass lookin grille!

[@Dave51262]

Wow! Looks great. Thanks to you and your Dad for the tips. Short, simple and to the point. Well done!

[@user..Aa..Bb..]

Good job. I need to do this to a vw golf to stop damage from flying stones into the rad/condenser

[@rafsolo]

I think this looks great! I like how it's easily removable too

[@raymondkhan2709]

Give difference. Great tutorial. Father and son duo😎

[@boy_deploy]

Awesome father and son bonding 🙂

[@aarongray7861]

Your "machine" is a jig saw. And I would have found a better mounting system than zip ties, even if it meant taking the bumper off. I would also have sanded/ ground/ round the edges before applying your edging so it doesn't poke through at some later date. Ask that being said, you did since really nice work. The final product looked really good, and being able to do things with your father is awesome!

[@antoniotycas]

Congratulations it would be fantastic to have a father like yours, i loosed mine 15 years Ago and my father and i we used to fix ours cars

[@davisnganga6266]

Wow. This is amazing bro. 👏 👏👏👏👏

[@xdivineHART]

Dang! The hate is real in this comment section, it's their car, they can do whatever they want. Go buy your own car and do your own thing!

[@bensong1605]

Ikr, like any of these haters can even drive yet, let alone afford a Porsche, to do with as they please.

[@TheSinisterDad]

"As they please"? Anybody can lease a Porsche and use zipties on it. 😂

[@bensong1605]

Rune Østner You're obviously just a child who has no concept of actual equity or credit to have made such a dumbass statement. Not everyone can just go out and "lease a Porche". I've read some dumb articles and a few dumb comments today, but your comment is definitely the dumbest I've read so far... I read an article earlier today, about a California man building his own rocket ship to prove the earth was flat (in 2017), because he "doesn't believe in science", yet used science to make his own rocket... And yet somehow, your comment suggests that you are even less informed than the guy in California...

[@TheSinisterDad]

Benson G Furthermore, anyone who uploads videos of themselves playing a game, shouldn't be calling grown ass men for children. That'll only get you in trouble, boy.

[@bensong1605]

You're pushing 40 yet crying on youtube... You still can't afford to lease a Porsche and as you so flagrantly stated that "anybody can lease a Porche" shows just how childish your mind is at your age. Again not just anyone can lease a Porshe either. So my point remains valid dipshit, and your child-like outlook on the subject is still rather funny, tbh. Also, last I checked you took the time to reply to MY comment with your own dumbass annoyance of an opinion, so if anyone here is the annoyance it's you bud.

[@Issac_G]

he said file the sharp edges with a nail file haha priceless

[@hungryrider7297]

Looks good! And it doesn't matter if you do DIY stuff to your Honda, or your Porsche, as long as it looks good!

[@billmcquay4530]

A Porsche with a grill held in by zip ties....imagine that.

[@agsher2221]

bill mcquay Lamborghini factory uses so many zip ties in their Manufacturing process that the company has a $700.00 Ziptie gun and the body has slots for them to sit in. Facts.

[@fanattyzm8137]

I just want to wrote the same thing ....

[@TheSinisterDad]

Ag Sher Yeah but they lose them before building the actual car. This must be a rental, since no markings or modifications are wanted.

[@agsher2221]

Rune Østner "Lose them"? As in remove them before selling the car? Nope! You need to Google that! But, should you NOT find any information about this, simply ask anyone who has purchased a New Lamborghini or better yet a Lamborghini Mechanic.

[@TheSinisterDad]

Ag Sher I live in Denmark where cars costs +180% in taxes. Lamborghini isn't crowding the streets here. Hahahaha Btw, uncle Google doesn't know about the zip ties in Lamborghini?

[@prof.jojopangan2407]

Sir Alex how amazing you do car grill in easier and simple and thank you for the idea. God bless.

[@asulliv1954]

Its use Porsche do what you want but its a great trick and if not for the zip ties no-one would know, awesome Video!

[@SkullyRox]

I didn’t even think about making a template this way! I’ve been putting it off because I couldn’t think how to do it!

[@discerningmind]

I've used rain gutter leaf guards. And they're not expensive to see if you like the look or not.

[@rstezza]

Looks amazing. Your dad done a good job 👏

[@rstezza]

Andrew Kling what are you talking about. Is anyone gonna get on their hands and knees to see how it's secured on? The owners happy with the end result. That's all that matters

[@bensong1605]

Andrew Kling, maybe you can show us all how to do it right on your porsche... Oh, wait... you don't have one. So stfu.

[@rstezza]

Benson G 😂

[@SB-yc4ib]

rstezza that looks like shit, and zip ties what the hell is wrong with that guy

[@rstezza]

Sławomir Bugajski it's his car. He can do what he likes. SimpleZ

[@collinmoore2586]

Its called making a TEMPLATE not a prototype BRO. But good job Dad!

[@iprincecharmbp]

[@geminijtwa29]

[@jervzocampo3075]

Wow the car is beautiful grill

[@timschutte8310]

[@DanMumford]

[@carlostoledo4358]

[@midninteranger4315]

I understand the concept and if done properly looks great, i would of used goop from the auto store then cut the ties it would've looked more professional so ignore all the haters good video

[@cormacsage7126]

I slides the bugs steal net behind the the grill and it covers up all top to bottom and no insect on radiator now so is good

[@kmatti4]

You made it look really easy. Thanks

[@Eduardomiramar22]

It look good to me love it finish product great idea💡 😍 I know here are a lot of haters

[@QuickMoba]

Love the directions. Thanks for making the video.

[@tesstickle7267]

Turned out nice..im planning on doing this on my car only problem is there's nothing to zip tie onto,just an exposed intercooler lol what annoys me most is the bumper literally went on a few days ago ,was a right pain in the ass to fit so doubt it'll be coming off again lol

[@m9m2x3]

Good jab Alex............................

[@kristoffernordstrom9389]

Nice, I will try to do a grill too

[@tyronemosley6810]

[@lawrencebachoo8689]

Simple ....smooth....very neatly done..

[@milaperegon2787]

Good job. Very helpful video

[@AGBULLIT]

Great video! I made grills for my hood scoops. Now I need to do the other grills to match.

[@KingLess2000]

Man, that's a good job! Looks awesome

[@colinjoseph7276]

Looks very cool.

[@user-xx7pg3vw9k]

Looks fly. Nice job!

[@TwistedSoul2002]

On a Porsche!? Maaaan- you guys *must* have Indian DNA in you! lolz Jokes aside, I did this kind of stuff back in the 90’s as a kid- we cut the plastic fins on the bumper (behind the mesh) and used really thick heavy duty black mesh- looked mean as hell on my Toyota Corolla! 😂 I like how your dad’s done that- it’s removable without trace- but remember, it *is* technically restricting air flow to the engine bay (a bit).

[@biancaflores3844]

Do you have a link of where you bought your grill and rubber thing? Been looking for something like this for my car

[@vrvignesh7]

awesome my dear friend

[@v336518]

Looks very smart, like it

[@felocoquimbo]

Muy buena solución sin necesidad de cortar ni modificar las piezas originales..muy buen video!. PD: si le pones plastidip negro al interior podría quedar mejor aun.

[@andreacunikova7010]

on a PANAMERA make a gypsy job!!!!! CRAZY man!

[@push1392]

Your dad is a genius

[@79dogface]

Looks sharp good job.

[@edlopez5k]

Great job!!

[@ilandman4evr]

Brilliant work. It looks great imo

[@themangopyrate]

NICE JOB, LOOKS AWESOME!!!

[@aeption]

Buen video, sobre todo lo demás goma de fuera, pero las bridas con la cabeza por dentro, más pequeñas i más queda mucho mejor, ese coche se lo merece

[@reneeysabela622]

That’s amazing idea bro. Like it so much! I’ll do it also.

[@alanoliphant1430]

Great video!

[@danielbrzenski2811]

Funny I see this after I already went to Lowe’s and did this for my rx-8

[@user-dj1jn7dd7y]

it looks amazing!! thank you for the informative video

[@ALKUKES]

You did a lovely job im guessing you did that just for the sake of a video, I don’t think you keeping a porsche with zip ties

[@jairocruz9277]

It looks nice. Great job.

[@BlesschildEBW]

Love it, it looks great.

[@raghukulala8260]

Thnks for the superb tips bro

[@lsjionredlinesupercharged2049]

I love it good job

[@Spta97Vids]

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?

[@timschutte8310]

, very good idea & very good work.

[@juzio1993]
