    I am looking for a picture of the under side of a dealer installed 355 challenge wing bracket.
    I'm just want confirmation of the rivets size, and where the bolts access holes where cut.
    Thanks guys

    That looks way too clean. Do they call you Edward Shammie Hands? ;)

    And one more question while we are on the subject, do all challenge lids have the hood pins on the side?

    Yes. When the F355 Challenge got the rear wing, dzus fasteners were required: Table 5 - REAR WING

    Yes if you did not tie the led down it would buckle where the fastener is. I have seen it on other models and done it myself at speed




    Correct each side was the same

    Ricambi America has the right hardware for your application. Drilling of your rear deck lid and rear clip is required to rivet mount the dzus fasteners and brackets with springs. Most of the Challenge cars I've seen have the ring type fasteners as Daniel has pictured in his parts diagram.

    I was wondering why the dzus fasteners were needed when you still had a latch at the back/center of the deck lid. Are you saying the wing pushed down on the lid causing the center to rise up/buckle?

    Yuup, they buckle up in front of the wing

    Pull back on the wing you will see it move

    The reinforcement rods help disperse the load also more forward
