i'd be interested in one of those if'n it came in a brushed aluminum look, more closely matching the rest of the engine. Bright chrome shows how much of the rest of the engine is *not* bright and shiny...

>>>One born every minute...

Oh well, the world's population is groing by some 77,000,000 people a year which is roughly 146 per minute.

So one s#cker being born out of the 146 means that still some 99.4% of all newly borns are reasonably smart...

All you have to hope for is that 0.6% to see your auction at Ebay...

I have you beat on that one Jack. Last year I sold 2 small speakers out of my 308 and after the bidding war I was left with almost $900 USD at the end.

I threw a couple of racing posters on there last year. Worthless, really. They got bid up furiously, selling for over $50 each!

I put this on e-bay hoping to get the $12 opening bid on it. It came on my car and it does a nice finising job but I'm interested in the 'original' look. Who would of thought it would have been so popular?

No kidding. The seller tips his hand when he says the sticker comes right off. But hey, we're all suckers, right?

How about a chrome cover for your oil filter on your 308 or 328? Actually, looking at the picture on the ebay auction at eBay item 2414487851 it's not a bad finishing touch.

As I'm writing this, bidding is up to $61 (!) for the item. What's interesting about that is that the item can be had for $7.99 from JC Whitney or other accessories suppliers, and all you have to do is add a $3 Ferrari sticker.
