FS: 914-6 GT Double Engine Grill
Replica of the original double grilled 914-6GT engine lid. It is made with original grill material. The cross brace can be lighten or removed (your choice - the lid is a bit more structurally rigid if the cross brace is only lightened - with the cross brace removed, the lid is lighter but the lid tends to flex and may not fit flush against the trunk when closed). The latch and torsion bars are left intact. The lids are painted semi-gloss black (similar to satin black).

The lid is $500 with a core lid (or $550 without a core) plus shipping/packing - cash, cashiers check or Paypal (add 3% for Paypal) from you. Your core lid(s)/grill(s) needs to be in very nice condition (lid has minimal coats of paint, no dents, nor rust and the mesh on grill has no holes nor deformities). If you are providing a stock lid(s)/grill(s), you are responsible for their packing/shipping to me. You can use the box that I send your GT lid in and, upon receipt and if in usable condition, I will refund $50.

More pics and info available upon request, Thanks

Any other pictures? what kind of grill material?

I'm fairly sure its two stock lids welded together.

Rob is correct, I do use two stock grills. But they are not welded together, They are attached in a similar fashion as the original with speed nuts and the addition of pop rivets.

Here is a close up picture of a section of the lid:

do you also have an extended rain guard thingie like the stock decklid has, or do we have to somehow fabricate our own?

no rain guard !!!!

the purpose of this lid is to improve cooling (which it does)

nice quality work if I may add, I don't have one, but I picked one up for a customer and was pleased with the lid.

Mike, thanks for the kudos. The grills are still available.

I also bought one of Sergio's 914-6 GT style grills. I have it on my 6 and it is a nice piece of work; well pleased with it. I wouldn't hesitate to suggest it to others for several reasons, most important being cooling (of course), but it also looks great. Indeed, kudos to Sergio!

Sergio,
Are your GT engine grills still available? What is the cost? Is the cost for one outright or do we need to supply a core grill? What forms of payment do you accept?
Thanks
Mark

Received my GT grill/engine lid to day. Looks great, thanks Sergio, your the man. As my car comes together I will post some pictures of my 6 conversion and your lid.

Thanks,
Mack

Sergio does great work. You can check out his engine lid on my car.

Now I just need to try it with my new oil cooler setup at the track.

Just make a couple of more of my GT grills. They are packed and ready to ship.

Sergio Are you still looking for grills?

CCLINPD,

Currently, I have plenty of grills and lids. But, I am open to offers that would involve one or several of my GT lids.

Just wanted to add to this forum,that I recieved a GT lid from Sergio and it is first rate. Fit perfectly, went on in minutes. It just completes the look for my 2.0 with steel flares. Great job Sergio. Talk soon.
Cheers,Dion

OK Dion....you baited me....now we have to see a pic of your car!!!

Yeah, I'm waiting to see a picture of his car too. He is probably going to have me wait until June when I go out there for the Porsche Parade.

Gentlemen, I would love to share a pic of my pride and joy,but as I keep spending money on her I've yet to join the digital age. I'll have to borrow a dig camera or buy a scanner. Sergio, I'll try not too wait that long to procure one. Nathan- Nice collection. I also have a Audi A6 Avant and a 92 VW GTI.
Cheers all,Dion

Where or who can I buy a GT Grill?

I was able to get a large stock of grills. So, I have several GT lids made and ready to ship.

Asking price?

Please read intitial posting for pricing.

When you install the GT grill, do you change the two side solid pieces at either end of the front part--the sides ? Maybe a picture of how it turns out would help

Jim,

You just change the lid. It is held on at the front by two 10mm bolts.

I am asking about the pieces to the right and left of the grill up against the glass and alonside the pillar . I'll take a picture later.

those arent removeable... theyre part of the body.

afik... the GT cars had the double griller, AND that solid area which you speak of jim. just the lids was changed

Thanks Aaron, went over to Joe's and looked at his. Bringing my new grill over to Bar-B-Que saturday to install if it doesn't rain.

My replica GT lids are still available.

I am now making my replica GT lids with or without the cross brace. When left in, the cross brace lis lightened via a series of holes.

What a great XMas gift.

Sergio:
I'm interested in the cross brace delete option - email sent.
Later,

Sergio,
Sent you an email. I would like to get my lid done or buy/exchange.

Sergio,

I would like to buy a GT grill without the cross brace. Do you have any available right now? Please call or email.

Yes a nice piece. The factory 916 double grille is actually cruder! The german chicken wire really looks cheap and it is installed with screws!

George,

I agree, the factory ones were inddeed an odd assortment that were made with what they had on had at the time. A few years back when Porsche was the featured marque at the Monterey Historics, there were six factory GTs - each lid was different and some indeed were a bit rough.

I was able to get a stock of grills. I have GT lids with and without the lightened cross-brace made and realy to ship.

Sergio

Received Sergio's product a couple of weeks ago.
Very pleased with it.

Larry Caulder

Larry,

Thanks for the positive feedback.

Sergio

Gentlemen,

I'm still making them if you are in need (or want) one. Thanks

Sergio

Just received my second GT Grill from Sergio and once again, I was not dissappointed.
Thanks Serg,
Larry Caulder

Hi Sergio,
No one has sent in a picture of your grill work. Here is how it looks on 914-6 conversion. Carbon fiber rear lid sets it off.

Mack

Sergio, i have my original lid, can i get one of yours? and can i see a pic of it before i by it? Do you take paypal and is there any discount if i send you my original lid back in the same box when you send it to me?
thanks,
Chris

Price? + shipping to Chandler, az 85224?

I've started making a very light weight version of the GT lid -
no cross-brace/hinges/latch/torsion bars. Mounts racer style with pins.

Sergio, I'd like one with no crossbrace. Ship to will be 46219.

thanks!

Hi Sergio,
Here is a couple of picks of your grillwork and how nice it looks for all you 914 guys who are thinking about a GT grill.

Pictures seem clear enough that you can see the contrast with the carbon fiber lid.

These things are very sweet! Nicely done, well packed, quick shipped.

What is the price? Do you have any pictures? It sounds cool!

"Racers" GT lid: now available:
No cross brace/torsion bars/hinges/latches - weight down to 8.8lbs.
