    Listing says: 4 genuine FERRARI ALLOY WHEELS CENTRE CAPS...so hopefully they are also NOS genuine OEM parts, eh...(otherwise they aren't what the buyer ordered)....

    Edit: Ask the seller to provide the docs (along with the Ferrari part number) to show these are genuine NOS OEM parts...if he can't/won't then also put that in you case....

    Agreed.

    Mine too.

    I'm going to say these are the original OEM center caps. I picked mine up from the post office. I examined the new ones with a loupe and also compared them to the originals on my car. Perfect match, right down to the shade of yellow.

    The surrounds on my 328 caps are grey. Is that incorrect?

    Gator...great to hear that! Like I said mine are a perfect match also... :) My discrepancy must be that over thirty five years my original yellow has "yellowed" :(

    They start out black but the plastic oxidizes and they turn gray.

    Just shows they were a litte better quality 35 years ago. The black on my originals is still black. Only the yellow darkened and became fuzzy...

    Oh ok. What’s the right fit? 56/43mm? Or 56/52?
    For factory default original rims

    It's odd that the artwork isn't even the same. Reminds me of the Dino badging, whereas it's sort of a free-for-all on the script.

    I've seen a few with a grey surround and wondered why.
    The grey looks so even all around that I thought it was a second factory colour version.

    I believe this is how the factory classify these items.

    You can scour fleabay for the old 108947 part number. Be prepared to pay.
