Hey all, It's time for me to ditch the rubber bumpers/weight. Here's some options . .. any thoughts? front: 1. Make/buy fibreglass replacement 2. Remove front bumper and make grill similar to stock that takes up entire opening 3. Remove front bumper and make "filler" out of mesh similar to what's under the rear louvers on the deck lid . .. easy to contour . . did Wdegroot's car have something like this am I recalling? 4. Suggestions 5. I'll be able to install some high power headlights down in there and save some more weight on the pop up headlights. rear: 1. Make/buy replacement 2. Remove bumper and exhuast cover and make some kind of diffuser assembly . . . just not sure how to tastefully blend that with the body. 3. Suggetions Thanks, Sean
I have a front fibreglass unit I'll trade for a stock North American bumper, as I too need to match my grill with the openings....
well shoot that could make things easy . .. I'll take pics of what's on it and the other car . . seems like they were a little different . . one's an '81 other '82. thanks for the offer. Sean
I fabricated this rear bumper for my euro 308 out of aluminum and fiberglass - weighs in at 7 pounds... Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thanks all for the pic's and comments. I like the idea of doing C-nero's rear bumper with some kind of diffuser blending wrapping underneath the muffler . . . quite a bit of work though. D-mauro that's nice but maybe a little less bling for me . Cheers, Sean
I can try my hand at photoshop ........ ! ............... I am keeping an eye on prices........ it seems they are going up a tad ......
I once saw, and photographed, that in Germany: Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Please don´t!!! His first (red) 308 with the same gril commited suicide because of this disfigurement!!! Really not my taste as you may have noticed. Ps. and the chrome ´cavallino rampante´is leaning forward.
I do not know if I will have this week Tim's going on Vacation, I had to wait till you car was finished, looks excellent.
I tend to be a traditionalist, but I like the "challenge grill" on the red 308. Still wouldn't do it myself.
That is the very rare "Scrambling Cavallino" issued to Ferraris used in the more mountainous regions of Italy, worth countless thousands................
