I like the rear on 348. Much better with this f355 grill.

Albert,
Dimax in Germany do the kit. I have a 348 Spider and I have seen the kit on the 348 it looks crap.
In the archives is some photos of the 348 with the lights.

Keep looking on eBay for a used 355 rear panel...I have seen them up for auction once in a while.There's one available now....

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34204&item=2420817959

Then get either the 355 tail lights (also on eBay) or the slightly larger 308/328/F40 lights...Some cutting modification to the rear panel of the 348 has to be made, but nothing radical, to make the 355 tailight panel fit properly. Any good bodyshop can do this work prior to painting your rear panel.

I tend to agree with you - the rear of the 348
is the least attractive side of this car...The Speciale/Challenge cars had no rear grill (an improvement over earlier 348s), but it still looks like a Toyota rear...

Whatever you decide to do after you buy your car, avoid the dealer for any of these parts...get them used, if you can and look on eBay for parts.

Good luck!

The 348 challenge and serie speciale cars had different rear lights from the standard cars. see if your local dealer can order those lights, or, get them from someone who has one of those cars.

WWW.GaRedCars.com makes a four circular tail light kit for the 348. You have to call them though as I do not believe they have it on their website yet.

I am thinking about purchasing a 348 from a reputable Ferrari dealer, 1991ts, but I hate the rear light treatment. Does anyone know of a kit, that would make it similar to a 355 either with 4 circular lights, maybe a challenge type grill or even a solid panel?
