How did you attach them is my question. Anyone know?
Hi everyone!
During a recent road trip out of Sydney (Australia), the Performante front spoiler collected leaves, insects and road pebbles which can damage the cooling fins inside the front spoiler, and are also difficult to clean out.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to best prevent the road debris from entering the front spoiler of the Performante?
And how to best clean out the debris thoroughly?
Thanks in advance for your ideas and tips!

Super valid point!I would imagine this would also be an issue in the Sterrato? does anyone have a close up view of the front radiator and see if they have any protective coverings?
This is for the STO? My Perf doesn’t have anything there at all, not even to modify.I didn't feel like paying $850-1400, so I'm making my own, using high quality, powder coated, metal mesh, and the plastic STO protectors. Worked out well, being that the mesh is hexagon shaped to boot. Total for all of the parts was about $200.

Cleaned up the edges, got the JB Weld on it, the mesh lined up nicely, and they are all clamped up for the next 24 hours. Will post pics when I get them on the car, in a week or two.
The plastic screens come on the STO (and possibly the Tecnica), but the AC condensers are the same for every trim of Huracan, so I just bought a pair for this purpose. They look like they simply snap onto the condensers.This is for the STO? My Perf doesn’t have anything there at all, not even to modify.
Are you doing this for your perf? Sounds like a great idea, order the screens for the STO and modify them.The plastic screens come on the STO (and possibly the Tecnica), but the AC condensers are the same for every trim of Huracan, so I just bought a pair for this purpose.

Here's the STO protector part:

And the AC condensers, that they affix to. As you can see, they are the same part number for every trim.

I am. My condensers are fairly ate up, so I wanted to get some protection for the new ones I'm having installed.Are you doing this for your perf? Sounds like a great idea, order the screens for the STO and modify them.
Makes sense - i want to do the same for mine. They have seen better days. You’ll have to send me some instructions if you would be so kind. On my list is removing the bumper to re do the PPF and when i do that this would be a great thing to do. I made my mind up that i do not want to sell my Perf. It is too much fun!I am.

Def TTing it.Makes sense - i want to do the same for mine. They have seen better days. You’ll have to send me some instructions if you would be so kind.

Are you S/C or Turboing it?
i often wondered about the aspect of damaging the value long term for the car. I may just pick up a 765LT as a stablemate.Def TTing it.
I can't imagine a better pairing, tbh.i often wondered about the aspect of damaging the value long term for the car. I may just pick up a 765LT as a stablemate.
Why not just overlap the mesh right on top of the plastic piece?I didn't feel like paying $850-1400, so I'm making my own.

You mean, without modifying it? I wanted to minimize the reduction in airflow, even if it's only a few percent difference, that it looked like overlapping them would cause. I basically wanted to keep the structure of the OEM part, give enough surface area for the JB Weld, increase airflow as much as possible, all while adding better protection than the OEM part offered. It doesn't hurt that I think it looks a lot nicer.Why not just overlap the mesh right on top of the plastic piece?
It looks great bro! I need these asap!You mean, without modifying it?
