    Well, after enjoying my new 355 for 500 miles, I thought I'd treat myself. I installed it in about an hour thanks to some helpful Fchat members. This is a very easy DIY for any novice. In my research I learned that 95 355s don't require the drilling of rivots as the later model cars do. Just another reason why 95s are the best! ;)
    Also, I have noticed a number of recent threads about challenge grills here and I have to reccomend Ricambi if you are considering this upgrade. I looked around for months and have yet to find a better price than Daniel's. Plus, it was on my doorstep the day after I called in my order!

    Don't worry -- the shelf won't be empty for very long.

    Probably by Monday morning, assuming DHL International holds up their end of the bargain!

    What do new Challenge grills go for? I already have one, but I need something to point out to the wife that I got a good deal because it was included :) :) :)

    Then the question is selling the car, do you really get back a decent % of the upgrade values? I'd be tempted to 'return it to stock' form to sell it and sell the parts separately. 'course even this is just a 'think about it' question because I do intend to keep my 355 for 10+ yrs...

    Depends on who prices it for you... $1,800.00 from FOW or $1,350.00 on ebay. Daniels price was the best. I'll let him share.
    I too would put my old grill back on when I sell this car.

    I have a challenge grill for the 355 that I bought but never put on the car. It's brand spankin' new. If anyone wants it, PM me with a price. I'm going out of town tonight through Wednesday of next week, but I'd be happy to mail it after I get back. I've had it for about 3 months and it's just sitting around my home office, so I'd be happy to sell it at a decent price.

    The grill looks fantastic on the Berlinetta ! Would it look that good a spider though ?
