    It's hard to recall - it's installed and looks great.

    Note - the Ferrari OEM grill has NO markings on it at all. It comes in a brown box (not yellow) and is quite large - there's a Ferrari Part # on the box and offical stickers as well. But that's it.

    Once out of the box - no clue how you'd ever tell OEM from repro.

    Yeah - LOVE that guide - thanks so much! Ready to g.! My studs are paint free (even though I have a full tap and die set).

    I'd post pics upon completion - but it's gonna look like EVERY other challenge grill. :)

    The one thing I'm toying with is some testing methodolgy to forever put to rest the "does it or does it not aid in engine bay cooling?"

    Thougths include extending my current practice of measuring oil filter and header temps immediately after shut down using a point and shoot thermometer, or - placing "tell tales" in the engine bay and mounting a suitably themally resistant vid cam in the bay to see how things flow before and after CG install.

    Thougths?
