    Looks nicer then stock. Ok the frontgate in stock is ok but i don't like the asimmetric one vent. Ok the 355 front look much better anyway.
    But i've read something about changed front bumpers on the latest 348, but this shouldn't be that change or?

    How convenient that the car has just under 30K miles. Pedal wear makes me think otherwise. On the other hand, the engine compartment insulation is still attached -- so that's a good thing, eh?

    I like the dual inlets, but I'm not too keen on the redesigned smaller front grill hole.

    Do think that the two a/c vents ballance each other out. I like it better than the stock picture.

    The right hand vent is for the ac compressor on stock bumper. I don't know what benefit it would have other than cosmetic to have two vents. Or maybe brake ducts?

    I like the 2 verts, but not the tapered grill area. IIRC, there is a 348 owner from the UK on here who modified his font end to have 2 vents. It loses a touch of the Ferrari style (single mirror TR) but in the end is a better more balanced look.

    Hi all,

    That would be me then, I also fitted a front splitter to mine.

    It looks much better with the twin vents.

    Regards,
    Phil.

    Your front bumper was done right (congrats). Not so for the one in the first pic in this thread.

    Hi I agree i like the stock bar, why mess with pinninfarina design, he got it right the first time, My only complaint is the tacky console.
