I original saw them on a F348 GTC. I had to have a set.
Actually the ones on the F348 GTC are kelvar.
I bought my carbon fibre sills from Heiko off Ebay.
If you type in Ferrari 348 Door Sills you will come up with the site.
Their is a picture on the site showing them on.
They were not cheap but what the heck they look excellent.
My F348 Spyder has only covered 27,000 miles.
I removed the original metal door sills and found they had already started
to rust.
The carbon fibre ones you will not have this problem.
I will try and get some photos this weekend to you.
I have been try for over a year to get a set.
The ones at the main dealer or nearly a �1000 each.
Plus you can only buy them if you own a F348 GTC because the dealer asks
for the chassis No.
They fit exactly like the metal ones.
The one thing is the Metal sill has bends around to form a protective on
the edge of the sill.
The Kelvar or carbon Fibre ones do not.
You need to be more careful not to catch the edge of the sill.
I will not change back, only if the car is sold.
The carbon fibre sills fit exactly onto the F355.
Kindest Regards,
Justin

I have carbon fibre door sills on my F348 Spider. The F348 GTC has them as well as standard. |

Unscrew the three screws on the sill cover. - One at each end, and one in the middle - and it will pull off - (They are towards the door seal)
No need to take the rubber strip off.

Hey everyone,
I found this old link:
http://www.ferrarichat.com/discus/messages/21/2302.html
Is removing the door sill as easy as peeling off the rubber 'Ferrari' strip and unscrewing a few screws?
Thanks
