    The carbon fiber rain gutter on the left side of the engine bay in my CS is slightly faded and therefore I asked a dealer for the price of a replacement and they quoted ~$3400 just for the left side!

    ONE PIECE is $3400?? that is insane. Anyone else surprised by this?!

    Nothing suprises me with Ferrari prices. Take a reasonable price and X10 to get the price you'll pay.

    I'd recommend getting them refurbished. Anyone used to working with Carbon Fiber can do it. They will usually very lightly sand down and remove a top layer of clearcoat or resin and re-apply it. It shouldnt be that expensive to get done, nothing like $3400 per side.

    I believe this subject was discussed a few weeks ago. If FNA is unwilling to partisapate I would have both drip panels redone in the finish you prefer by Premier and call it a day.

    the X10 formula is always right on the money! I am beginning to think Ferrari uses it themselves :)
