Euro Style Front End

i got my replacement euro front valence (spoiler ) from berlinetta motor cars and it was a direct fit to my euro 308. these spoilers do scrape the ground a lot if i am not careful about driveway inclines etc, you just have to approach at an angle. i fabricated a custom aluminum channel for the bottom lip of the spoiler that helps a lot.

 

Italian Design carries them, as well as some other parts suppliers--I think George Evans, T. Rutlands, and Ferrari UK might have them as well.

You can use your US spec bumper and grill with the Euro spoiler. In fact, I heard that the Euro spoiler was an option for US spec cars and they used the US bumpers and grills. However, if you ever switch to a Euro bumper, you need to also use the Euro grill in order to look right. The US grill is far too narrow to use with the slimer Euro bumper.

 

That is correct. Mine was ordered that way. The "US" (short) spoiler was also an option for Euro cars!

 

How do the driving lights I see on some cars (I've only seen on euros) attach? I've never seen a good detail pic, are they inset into the grill that's shorter than one without driving lights? They look slicker than if they were just hung off the bumper, can someone 'splain for me? Thanks!

 

They attach to a hole on a metal piece above the fog lights on the car. The grill has nothing top do with the lights per se except they have clearance for them. If you REALLY need pic lemme know.

All it basically is, is a hole on a metal rod on the car. The fogs mount to that.

 

So I take it that the lights are recessed into the grille, yes? Just wondering what it would take to make my US spec car look like that, cause I really like it.

 

Yes, recessed. As for what it would take to mod your grill, just need room for the fogs somewhere in it.

 

Here are pics of a complete Euro front end treatment and a US spec with the spoiler omly treatment. I hope they come through. If not, email me and I'll email them to you.

I believe that italian racing has them new for $600 or so.

 

Oh, geez, now we've given him another excuse to take & post more pics of his car!

Thanks, just the info I was looking for!

 

Try some of the other sources I gave you. I called around last year and found several which were much cheaper than the one you quote.

 

I believe that you nee to cut the stock grill in order to install the lights. I think that any Ferrari grill you buy will e the full length.

 

Damn, my photojournalist background is showing

 

I have a brand new Euro Deep Front Spoiler. Is someone maybe interested.Sold my other 308 and never put it on.Now the wife says it is in the way.

 

Lee,
Send me a PM with your info.
Thanks

 

Steve M, the red 308 in your profile, is that a Euro car. Or is that a U.S. spec car that you modified in the front-end. Thanks.
