    Hi Dave, these skid plates look great but I noticed you don't ship to Australia. Any chance of arranging to get these sent down under?

    Hi Trevor,

    Yes, we do ship to Aus - let me get that setup on the store later today. The shipping rate feature of our online store is not a feature that I love.

    Hi Matt,

    At this time, we only have 355 skid plates. Others to be added in the future.

    Dave, those bolt into existing screw holes and no drilling, cutting, welding, painting or modification of any kind right? Also the wheel lug studs do they come in silver with "355 F1" enscribed on it?

    No, you need to drill into the bumper bottom side to mount these.

    Regarding wheel lug stud, we don't manufacture any such thing but we do manufacture wheel inserts and they are marked with the P/N, our web address and size (no markings are seen when installed)

    Thank you :)

    I had Home economic as an elective in Highschool. If I knew I would have opted for wood or metal class. Hindsight is 20/20. The second part, Im talking about the wheel installation assist bar that screw into the hub.

    The wheel tools don't say 355 or Ferrari on them as they can be used for McLaren, Porsche, Maserati or any other car with M14 x 1.5 threads.

    That is a good thickness :) .... the versions I bought many years ago were .375" ... far too thick and too visible from the side IMO ...... not to mention the .125" of reduced clearance .... :eek:

    With winter coming, many may be having bumpers repaired and resprayed so it's a good time to think about the addition of skid plates at a very affordable price. In stock for immediate shipment :)

    Here is a video of these being machined in our shop ;)
