Horn Grilles
By OE Match
- Porsche 356B 1959-63
- Porsche 356C 1963-65
The OE Match Horn Grille is a premium-quality replacement exterior body component designed to restore the original appearance and protective function of the front horn grilles on compatible classic Porsche models. Manufactured to OE specifications for fit, finish and durability, these grilles provide factory-style aesthetics while allowing unrestricted airflow to the horn assemblies and protecting them from road debris, dirt and moisture.
Fits:
- Porsche 356B 1959-63
- Porsche 356C 1963-65
Manufactured from high-quality pressed metal with a durable corrosion-resistant finish, each horn grille is precision-formed to replicate the original factory design for a perfect fit and authentic appearance. Suitable for restoration projects or replacing damaged, corroded or missing originals, these grilles help preserve both the functionality and timeless styling of your Porsche.
What This Product Does:
- Protects the horn assemblies from road debris and contaminants.
- Allows unrestricted airflow around the horn components.
- Restores the original appearance of the front bodywork.
- Provides factory-style fitment and alignment.
- Helps prevent damage to components behind the grille.
- Supports proper drainage around the horn aperture.
- Enhances the overall finish of the vehicle's front end.
- Forms an integral part of the front body panel assembly.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Corrosion or rust on the grille.
- Bent or distorted grille panels.
- Cracked or damaged mounting points.
- Loose or poorly fitting grille.
- Missing grille exposing the horn assembly.
- Pitted or deteriorated surface finish.
- Reduced protection from road debris.
- Visible cosmetic damage affecting the front bodywork.
- Rattling noises caused by loose fitment.
- Deteriorated appearance during restoration or inspection.
Why Replacement Matters:
- Horn grilles are continually exposed to rain, road salt, UV light, stone impacts and other environmental hazards. Over time, corrosion, physical damage and general wear can compromise both their appearance and their ability to protect the horn assemblies and surrounding bodywork.
- A damaged or missing grille leaves the horn assemblies vulnerable to moisture and debris, which can accelerate corrosion and reduce horn reliability. It also detracts from the authentic appearance of the vehicle, particularly on classic Porsche restoration projects where originality is important.
- Replacing worn or damaged horn grilles restores the factory appearance of the front bodywork while protecting the horn assemblies from environmental damage. OE Match replacements provide precise OE-style fitment, durable corrosion-resistant construction and an authentic finish, helping preserve the quality, functionality and value of your classic Porsche.

OEMatch Horn Grilles — Fit, Function, Confidence
For Porsche models, horn grilles combine protection, airflow management and visual detail at the front of the car. OEMatch supplies a focused selection chosen to preserve lighting assemblies and horn components while maintaining the vehicle’s intended appearance and cooling behaviour.
Available Types- Chrome and polished metal finishes
- Black or satin painted grilles
- Mesh-style and ABS plastic options
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original horn grilles.
OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the horn grilles and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM horn grilles engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
Horn grilles are formed to protect lamps, horn units and front air intakes from debris while contributing to aerodynamic flow. Materials range from stamped metal and stainless steel to glass-reinforced plastics; each is shaped to match mounting points, allow cooling airflow and retain the car’s characteristic front-end lines.
Benefits Include- Protects lighting and horn assemblies from road debris
- Maintains airflow to radiators and coolers
- Restores or refines the vehicle’s original appearance
- Stone chips and impact damage from road debris
- Corrosion and pitting from moisture and salt exposure
- UV fading, cracking or warping due to age and heat cycles
Replacing damaged or degraded grilles preserves airflow to front-mounted coolers and keeps lighting and horn components protected from further harm. For Porsche models this supports consistent cooling behaviour, retains correct front-end geometry and helps maintain the car’s original styling. Using a matched replacement keeps mounting points aligned and reduces the risk of rattles or misalignment during routine use.
Advantages- Available in period-correct and modern finishes for restoration or upgrade
- Materials chosen for corrosion resistance and visual match
- Designed to sit correctly within the front fascia to safeguard adjacent components
Fitting can appear straightforward but may require attention to clips, fasteners and alignment. If you are unsure about removal and refit procedures, seek professional help. Recheck fasteners after initial mileage and avoid drilling new holes that alter original mounting points.
