    Hi all. I am attempting to correct some hardware under the front hood of my Testarossa and I can’t seem to track any pictures that show this detail. I am specifically looking for a picture of the rivet that attaches the front bellows to the bumper intakes from the grill. At least I think they were rivets. If someone has a picture of a factory setup of the inside of the intake and the bellows side under the hood, it would really help me out.
    Thanks!

    Not sure the area you reference. Can you show a pic of what you seek?

    Hi Vincenzo. I can take a picture of that area and post it tomorrow. I see how my request is kind of confusing. The part I am referring to is 61491400 and how it is attached to the front bumper. It should be the same for all 85 to 91 Testarossas. Thanks for clarifying.

    That does help, Vincenzo. Thank you for taking those photos. It appears that these are blind rivets with a small washer on the rubber side. Does that seem correct? I couldn’t see the face that is inside the inlet, though. Any chance of getting a picture of those just so I can estimate the size? Thanks again

    They are plain old pop rivets. Washer on the backside. Likely a 3/16” inch will work. Get an assortment. Match the hole dia once your old rivets are out. No better photos from inside - don’t want to dissasemble the grill.

    Good luck

    No need to take the grill out. I see where and how they attach now. Thanks again Vincenzo.
