    I tried to put a #2 pencil to fill the gap, then a small ruler but both just got in the way. I eyeballed it and it turned out great. It’s essentially the same length as the Ferrari logo so I guess I used the edge of my thumbs to equalize the gap. Haven’t put a micrometer or level on it but looks perfect to me.

    Both times I used a pencil as the gap measure. As you say it’s same width as Ferrari badge so easy to align

    I questioned the quality and they immediately issued a call tag. I only wanted to know if I got a defective flag. They seem to think that this is the quality level we all got. Not sure how to react to that.

    I have one and does not have the rough edges…..I would have them send you a replacement without this flaw. Contact Denis at myRicambi….

    You sure ? Look at the red section at the end. If I'm not mistaken I can see some scratches.

    We’ll now you got me paranoid MANDALAY! Just went out to the garage and mine looks good close up. If I take a close up pic it appears to have some ‘defects’ but it may be reflecting the light weirdly. Certainly nothing like what he received.

    Sorry never meant to spook you :(

    Probably the same thing is happening with his picture as it pretty close up ?

    Maybe they are all that way ? Softness in the material used.

    You know the rules: pics or it doesn’t count.

    Yes, you’re right, I’m just trying to see another beautiful 458. Can’t fault a guy for trying. :)

    MyRicambi will replace the faulty part. Their customer support is impeccable. I had a problem with some carbon engine bits and they went completely above and beyond to get me squared away.
