I used the Amazon material and made my own. I tucked mine inbetween the black molding and rubber seal around it. Only two zip ties to hold the top. The bottom and sides are held in place sandwiched in between the black modeling and rubber surrounding it. Also use two this strips of PPF around the posts holding my zip ties so they don’t scratch the black paint.

Zunsport

[603BlueM2]

Zunsport grills. Not cheap, but they are easy to install and look great.

I just installed the Zunsport on the bottom as well, looks just like the above and a piece of cake to install.
I used Radiator Grille Store mesh on the front and zip tied it in behind a Sly Brackets front plate mount. Note that the Sly Bracket mounting system uses a spring loaded clamp that extends behind and along side the vertical strut. This required me to cut out a passage for it from the RGS plastic mesh. Once that piece was removed, the two fit perfectly. Photos below in case this can help someone in the future!

So I think (based on the photo on their site here) this is the 4 screw one. 2 screw is only the top screws and top 1/2 of the mounting plate, this is top and bottom screws and the mounting plate is the same size as the license plate. I figured this is more sturdy/rigid. Both mount to the car in the same way, but this has more support for the plate itself. Seeming more sturdy, but may not matter?

It looks slightly different than the photo since you can adjust how high the back plate mounts. Here I have the plate slid all the way down (mounted on the top most holes) so it hangs lower and doesn't interfere with the painted bumper above.

UK M2 owner here, I've had the car for two weeks now, after reading threads like this I was concerned about the possible damage to the various rads/coolers.
On my May '23 auto, the upper rad (behind the kidney grill) and the two side rads already have the factory fit plastic protectors on. The lower transmission cooler didn't, and was already showing signs of damage, so I ordered and fitted the Zunsport lower grill mesh. Impressed with the simplicity of design and fitment.
I also have the Zunsport oil cooler mesh on order, this looks to be a no brainer upgrade from the stock design.
Forgive the dirty car in the photos, I've been too busy enjoying driving it to clean it so far..... You can see the damage to the transmission cooler, the plastic protector on one side and then the after shots.

Those pics are a great advertisement for guards - I hate dinged up, bug caked radiators/coolers. Must do mod on these cars within first 1000 miles

I purchased Stradale front radiator and side air vent mesh protectors… great quality products.. installed the radiator one without any sort of disassembly of the bumper… was ready to install the side vent protectors and realized that on MY25 they are already protected… see attached pics… so no need to install these… either functionally it aesthetically… Stradale radiator piece sits far inside that you can’t even tell it is there… just my 2 cents.

Any chance you can let me know what model race ramps are the ones in your pic?
I’m looking to get a set my self to work underneath the car.
I appreciate it.

Zunsport here. Perfect fitment, zero cooling issues....

Fyi - for those with the Zunsport grilles who opted not to install the smaller brake duct opening screens (me included), I noticed today when I removed the fender liners that the brake ducts were completely filled with leaves & other debris blocking the vent. I'll be re-installing the brake duct screens to keep all that garbage out.

I installed them because I thought it looked incomplete without them. Glad to know that’s a nice byproduct.

I like the look of this but the site only shows grills for corvette and Porsche? Did you customize yours?

[fzr100098]

All 6 Zunsport guards need to be installed (including oil cooler guard) - your radiators/coolers will thank you later
