    I like the shields on a 355 but am generally hostile to peacockery or the hey-look-at-me ethos of our times. I think they look good on a 355 not because they show off the "brand" but because they somehow complement the wedge shape. The 355 gets low and slender toward the front and the shields give the lines a little more heft. That's the best I can describe it.

    Agreed I'm not going for the tacky name brand everywhere like lv branded clothes but just the fact that it was a factory option that made the car look complete when placed there. Especially since I'm putting the euro turn signals that came on it much complements that area of the car and cleans up my bumper when I remove the reflectors on front and rear.

    Factory fenders are steel and weigh roughly 8lbs each (non-painted). I had my recessed fenders made in carbon. Weighs 2 lbs :).

    ShineKen, Do you think that the person that did yours would sell me a set? :) I have been looking for these for a while ES only has one side available.
