If anyone is interested, I have 2 NEW, still in the box, 360 Challenge grilles for sale. The steel grill is $800 plus shipping and I have an aluminum grille (used on Challenge cars) which is 6-7 lbs lighter for $1,000 plus shipping. Email me directly if interested.

Andrew, I will call my mates at Ferrari & find out if they have any F355 C grill in stock, if so then yes, i think we can do the deal for the same price. Do you want me to add you to the list? Kurt |

Is the group offer only for 360 grilles? What about 355 grilles? |

Any interest in a matching front challenge grill, they would be pretty cheap to make, probably more money for labor than parts type of thing. Black color?? Silverish color??? (stainless steel, non-rusting, non chipping, or aluminum which is very light and can be anodized any color. Which do you prefer? I have attached a photo to show the type of mesh that we could use, its really just give an idea, I plan on making some prototypes this month so any comments are likely to end up in production. |

There are several brand new challenge grills on eBay now for $899... Ernesto PS. Dave, I'd be interested in a more open grilled panel. I would think it will be very difficult to make because of the curvature, but if it looks good I would buy one. |

Dear Kurt and other grill seekers, I saw your post on the group buy, I am contemplating manufacturing a challenge grill using my aircraft parts factory here in Los Angeles. I am personally interested in making a grill that has the identical look but with a more open mesh, maybe like a wire woven look similar to the new Jaguar grille or bentley grill. Also, I want to reduce the weight of the grill, its not light and is made of steel surprisingly. Would anyone be interested in an alternative look that would allow a better view of the engine or would you be interested in an identical to factory challenge grill but a 1/3 savings or more over OEM. Please comment. I also would appreciate any ideas on who could ditribute these aftermarket alternative grills, I am busy and really only am good a manufacturing, not the marketing. |

Kurt, great idea. How hard is it to install, is it a do it yourself? Does it come with the Cavallino? Thanks, Will |

I ordered a Grill from Kurt that I installed last week on my 360 and it looks great. The price I got quoted from my dealer was $2500.00 not $1,500.00 Anyway I would highly recomend a grill to any 360 owner. |

I am looking at offering a group buy on the 360 Challenge style rear grilles. Currently these are selling @ FNA for over $1500.00, if i can get 5 orders, i can sell them for $899.99 inc. shipping Continental USA, there will be additional shipping charges if shipped overseas. Let us know if there is any interest, if so, i'll put an order in with my European contact & provide transit times & such. There will have to be at least 5 orders though, otherwise, shipping charges from Europe will be to expen$ive. Kurt.
