    Is it practical for one person to remove and replace the front bumper?
    I did the rear bumper which was really light weight.

    Yes, The red GTS came with tinted windows. My yellow Berlinetta does not have tint after I recently removed it. I prefer the cars without it.

    Looks perfect. I actually prefer it without the shields with the speedlines...nice clean look!

    Oh man. Is there anything more beautiful? Seriously. I'd say there isn't a car available for less than $200k that looks, drives and sounds better than a 355 Berlinetta.

    Albert!

    Love it.

    Should have mine on in a few more weeks. We'll be twins... if twins were yellow and red..

    Beautiful stuff indeed.

    I have really grown to appreciate the "non-shields"/stock look of the F355 Berlinetta.
    I was originally forced to make the car as much factory stock look, as possible as per Forza Magazine's requests prior to the photoshops...I removed my shields, removed the Hill engineering Challenge Tow hook, and challenge speed lines...however, after the shoot, I couldn't resist in placing the challenge wheels back on...ha ha. Thanks for all the compliments guys, I'm hoping for a great upcoming new year for all of us on road and track!

    Beautiful car Albert, though I prefer the shields. You can't go wrong with any 355...

    Engine lid looks like it needs adjusting if it is in the closed position.
    Should be a fraction lower when closed.
    Remove lock catch and adjust u shaped catch to gain 1-2mm more closure.

    I agree. Absolutely obsessed with these things. So well proportioned and just gorgeous from every angle.

    Yep. I was considering doing shields (with fender recess) but once I got the car loved the clean look without.

    I like the Speedlines and stock wheels equally (but offsets seem better on the Speedlines)

    how is the Hills eng Challenge tow hook..?

    im looking into one.. as my car did not come with the oem hook..

    the Hills hook on Ricambi is only $140.. thats pretty good..

    I would plan to install it and leave it on at all times..
    do you have any pics..?
