    I have two questions, I am trying to replace a decal/sticker that appears to say "Catalyst" near the right rear shock tower, see link of my current decal which is badly curled and faded:
    http://www.miniwerks.com/models/decal355.jpg

    Is there a source in the US for these decals? I will try Ferrari of SF but wondered if there are other sources too.

    Also, I noticed that there are two holes near the Ferrari/Agip plate near the rear section, should another plate be here or is this reserved for european cars?

    Appreciate any help. Mike

    Did you end up locating the sticker? I'm contemplating a repaint of those engine compartment panels and the stickers has me worried as well.

    I got a new one from Ferrari of Atlanta but it took six months. Before installing it, I scanned it into my computer so that I could make a replacement in the future. I will be happy to send you that scan. It is for a 1995 model.

    Thank you for your offer and sorry for the late reply, need to check my posts more often! I am going over to Ferrari Parts Exchange this week so I will report back. I also have one on order from a dealer just in case. I noticed that the "Catalyst" sticker is separate from the smaller barcode sticker and they appear to have one big clear sticker over them so I need to find out the best way to replace this properly without damaging the barcode sticker in the process.

    Michael, I hope to find the sticker this week and will let you know. There appears to be a clear sticker over the top as well so I may need two different pieces? Mike

    Hi Mike,

    I recently joined the FerrariChat.com forum and after some reading your name came up... you sold me some BBR models through Ebay and now I found out we have the same type of Ferrari...

    The issue of the " missing " plate on your car: only European types have an additional plate there. On it is the type of engine and some other figures I also don't know what they mean.

    I have added a small photo, but due to resizing you can hardly see what's on it... what you can notify is that here in Europe Shell oil is recommended in stead of Agip.

    This is my first post so please forgive any rookie errors.

    After hunting for replacement Shell and catalyst plates for a year, Ferrari have come back saying they are no longer available. Also not available from italiancarparts or superformance or anywhere else I can find online worldwide.

    Could someone take some high resolution photos of these plates and make them available to everyone. If so we could get them reproduced in our respective countries very cheaply.

    Apologies if someone has done this already but I couldn't find anything.

    P.S. Best forum ever, the info and knowledge on here is amazing.

    Bumping this thread. Anyone have any recent luck in replacing the "catalyst" plate? The "Shell" plate seems available from Eurospares, but no luck with the "catalyst" plate. Thanks in advance.

    My sticker is badly faded, looks almost like someone tried to scrape it off.

    Did you have any registration issues with a bad sticker?

    I am the owner of a 1995 F355 Berlinetta and looking for a lubrication tag located in the engine compartment on the panel running along the right side per the attached pix. Can anybody recommend a source for obtaining this tag?
    Thank you,

    I have replica catalyst stickers for all F355 years (1994 - 1999). PM me for info. You can search on the forum for more info and pics. These replicas were created with assistance of the F355 community in 2012.

    Rockit is a stand up guy. And he does not even have a 355 anymore. Sad.
