    Hello all -

    I was wondering whether someone know how to remove the ferrari badge on top of the engine compartment? There are apparently two rivets underneath but I'm not sure how to remove and fix them again.

    I'm talking about the horizontal one on the top (see picture)


    Does anyone have an idea?
    Thanks

    Thank you 2NA for sharing the picture. It is basically the "how to" remove those fasteners that worries me. I'm afraid to break them.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks again

    Don't worry about trying to save them for re-use. Just order 2 new plastic fasteners and 2 metal "clips". I used a pair of thin needle-nose pliers to grasp the metal clip to pull it straight back and off. The plastic fastener will then come off with a gentle turning motion. Make sure you use a good mild polishing compound to remove any wax build-up around and under the Ferrari badge and then re-wax, before you re-install it.

    Just contact Daniel at Ricambi and tell him what you need. He'll set you up with the exact parts needed. No hassle.

    Thank you saw1998. I will act accordingly. I will however order the pieces in the UK to avoid extra tax and expensive international shipping charges.

    Can anyone point me to these for UK? I can find ‘starlock washers’ IE the metal part, but not the plastic centre (missing on my car)?
