Rummaging around in a parts box given to me by the P.O. of my '74 2.0L, I found an officially sanctioned aftermarket option apparently sold at Porsche dealerships back in the day. It was still in its original packaging. Package label read as follows:
"Porsche 914 Air Intake Grille Molding" Part No. ZPW 151 053 Distributed by Volkswagen of America Manufactured by X-L-O Automotive After attaching it to the car, I really seem to like it. Especially on a white 914 like mine, it seems to provide a balance to the black engine grille in the rear. Anyone else have one of these? History? Ansbacher |

That looks awful! Thanks, Mike for uplifting my already down in the dumps COVID-19 spirits. I still like it and I will still buy more radio parts from you as I have in the past. Thanks again.
