    Clear front turn signal lenses look great with that body color! Well, they're a big improvement on any color but look extra classy with yours.

    Did you get your wheels painted a lighter silver than original?

    Not a bad cell phone photo at all and correctly oriented (instead of the 90 degree rotation with the obligatory "Sorry, I forgot to rotate the photo/don't know how to rotate the photo.")

    :)

    The wheels do look bright, but they are OEM, its just really sunny i guess. I really like the brightness of the OEM wheels I actually took my Hamman PG3s off to get re-painted because they are to dark. I actually was going to paint them OEM 355 wheel color since it is so bright, but it turns out the real color is impossible to find out (so far). The common knowledge here and on the internet is PPG 36520 silver, which is a ferrari metallic body color, which is based on what ferrari recommends. However, when i got the paint it was slightly more silver, and the metalic flakes are much larger. We tried to put a paint scanner camera on it but there is not a flat enough area.
    The rear 355 color is a speedline proprietary color and i cant get and email from them.
    So i ended up going with an even brighter GM color from the c7 z51 corvette, hopefully get them back on the car in a week or so.

    I will bring out the DSLR next time I do a photo shoot.

    Sorry for photo-bombing this thread

    Thanks for the info. I would like my O.E.M. color wheels a bit brighter silver (I think?!?).

    Here is the only example I could find of brightened oem wheels.
    http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/348-355-sponsored-bradan/281210-refinished-my-355-wheels.html

    Like I said, I will post my bright silver pg3's when they are done, should give you an idea of if its a good color

    I attached a picture of my cars color (grigio) with OEM 355 wheel and sterling silver GM wheel in overcast light.

    The OEM PPG is pretty bright. It gets a bit darker when guys that don't know how to paint apply the base coat dry.

    actually these ramps are not too useful for the F355, it's also not possible to put a similar ramp below the front wheels. At least they are high enough to be able to get below the engine for a quick inspection at home, maybe an oil change would be possible too.

    I actually bought them because I had a project on another car for which they were useful. The F355 was only once on the ramp and somehow it looked funny :) That's why I put the picture in here...
