    Good day to everyone,

    I'm hoping to get some assistance with the identification of a part number. I'm unsure if this metal version is OEM or aftermarket? I have the rubber version on my 1995 GTB but I'd rather prefer the metal version I've seen on other 355 vehicles. When I do a search of the 2.7 part number I see the rubber version and when I do a search of the 5.2 part number I oddly don't find any images. I've only been able to see it when I do a general search for F355/355. Thanks in advance for the assistance, I appreciate it and I hope y'all have a great rest of the week!

    This trim piece is listed as "Profile" for the 2.7 vehicles and "Gasket" for the 5.2 vehicles.

    Table: 106
    Location: 31
    Part Numbers: 64679800 (2.7) & 65083700 (5.2). None on Challenge tables.

    Yes, that is the type which is on my 2.7 as I mentioned above. I am looking for the metal version of this trim. If you look at the photos you can see the difference. Thanks for the reply though!

    It appears that the part number 65083700 for the 5.2 is indeed the metal one you are trying to find. Here are photos of that part used on eBay from Ferrparts https://www.ebay.com/itm/124565277911 and it is clearly the rigid metal one. They seem to have it priced pretty aggressively seeing as new ones are under $100 from the typical new Ferrari parts vendors, but none of them have one in stock so the part may not be available right now.

    Thanks for helping confirm, 05elise! I guess the description for that part number (Gasket) threw me off a bit as I think of gaskets as being a shape conforming sealing device or agent. I'll begin hunting down a new/fairly new one. Thanks again!

    I have brand new one I'm willing to sell.

    It's no longer available new. $350. Ebay one is used and beat.

    Thank you for the offer ShineKen, but at that price I'll have to pass. I appreciate the heads up though.
