    I've been thinking about a rear Challenge Grill for my red F355. My red rear panel gets really hot and the chrome horse is almost untouchable after a decent drive, so the extra ventilation should help, but any thoughts about the looks of a Challenge Grill vs. the stock red panel?

    I think the word you are looking for is 'vandalised'
    hopefully they catch who ever did it and there's no lasting damage.

    I've stayed with the standard panel but my car doesn't have the high ambient temperatures to deal with that yours does, in that case it may be a definite for you. I'm suprised though as I would think that number plate would be cool enough to chill the engine lol

    I believe a Challenge Grill is a must on any 355 to help dissipate engine and exhaust heat.

    Thanks everyone!
    These two photos just did it! I'm hooked! Now I need to order my Challenge Grill from Daniel at Ricambi ... :D

    Actually I couldn't decide what plate to get so I made a bunch of paper plates that I stuck on to see what it would look like before I ordered my real "4RE" plate that I'm now waiting for. :D
