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  |

Just use one of the grids that goes between the fresh air box and opening.
This one kind of looks like wearing your underwear outside your pants.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |
