    WTB: NOS or Near-NOS Black Engine Grille

    As stated in the title, we're looking for an NOS black engine grille for one of our clients. Porsche P/N is 911.559.041.02 .

    It will be expensive. That's a given, and that's acceptable.

    If you have a superb original that is black rather than purple, he may be amenable to that option as well. It must be befitting of a restored car with zero patina.

    Edit: My apologies, posted in the wrong section.

    You can get these new from Stoddard. They are pricey, but not nearly as much as if you could find someone with a original OEM piece that is perfect.

    Hope this helps. I have some that are pretty nice but not quite perfect.

    Even if they did, the Marek ones Porsche sold, have a different mesh backing

    We've used reproductions in the past, but they're not acceptable for this client. Thanks for the heads up, though, Erik!
