    I have a 360 Modena without wing badges. I don't want the expense of new wings!! I have heard that I might be able to get enamel badges (about 1/2 thickness) which stick on. Does anyone know of this and where I might get some?? Thanks

    I am not sure if saying "wing" badges you mean fender scuderia shields or something else. If you mean the shields, check with Daniel from Ricambi (sponsor on this site). They have it, good quality, easy to put on. I bought them in past as well......

    Cheers masar. Contacted Ricambi and ordered enamel shields over the phone. Expect them within the week. Excellent tip, thanks

    Ive never added these as cars with them have a slight indent (by the factory) where the shields go. If you just stick them on the side, don't they look like someone just stuck a metal sticker on the side of a car?? I personally dont like them but everyone else seems to including the dealers for re-sale.

    I'm with you. When I get my 360 I do want the shields, but only the factory versions with the indented fenders.

    Of course, I stuck the metal ones on my 328! I'm a paradox! ;)

    These shields are very thin so it does not look so bad compare OEM even there is no the indent.

    I put the thin version on my 360 looks great I dont think the cost of indenting justifies the extra cost.

    Neither do I, that's why I'll find one with factory shields.

    I would not let a good car with the options you want and low milage get away because it does not have the factory shields the difference is not worth that much.

    I was deciding on two similar red 360's. One had the indented shields, but had 5k more miles. I chose the lesser mile car with the decal shields. To be honest, they look almost identical to me. The "decals" are great quality... very thin but definitely more substantial than just a "sticker."

    I believe the thinnest shields are from Yoshield, they are closer to the raised thickness of the factory shields than some others.

    The Yoshield is not a Ferrari licensed product.

    And as a rule, Ferrari frowns on knock off products. I have no idea how he's lasted this long without a cease and decist from FNA.

    Yoshields are an excellent product and priced right. Besides he is there if there is a problem. That is how he has lasted that long. AF.

    I have shields from Daniels contact and they are so good I almost faked out a concourse judge!!!! He actually took a double look and finally said to me, "those aren't real are they??", I laughed and said "no, but don't gig me they almost faked you!". We both had a laugh.
