    Ken would you consider changing the title of this thread to "Fake race car seats" ?

    :D

    On Fchat? Most likely never.

    Most 355 heat shields are mangled and beat to a pulp because of the subpar coating Ferrari used at the time and the material of the shield itself. It’s time for an upgrade :). These can be VHT coated as well if need be.

    I commissioned some people to have it made for me. The first two have slightly crooked carbon on the top. I’m waiting for a third attempt. I might off these once I get one to my full liking.

    That heat shield on my car isn't *horribly* beaten up but it's like all of them, a little tired. And it's heavy....Ken if you want to offload one of those let me know. Not interested in sills though. ;)

    There is a visual difference between a 2.7 and a 5.2 version. I know a 5.2 version can be fitted to a 2.7, but not sure if 2.7 can go on a 5.2. Mount wise, good chance its the same, but design-wise, something could be hitting. The opening for the valve has a bigger bulge on the 2.7.


    Here’s 2.7 vs 5.2 for comparison.

    This 355 is up for auction on BaT in case anyone is unaware. I will continually bump this thread until the auction is over :cool:.

    Am I crazy or is there a lot of chain noise on that car?
