    I cannot believe it! I was driving my 348 yesterday through a place I was familiar with, and went over a small dip at 20 mph. Well, the temp was in the teens at the time. My front end scraped....seemed normal. But, when I got out and looked at it THE ENTIRE front bumper and spoiler was shattered. So, be very careful if you are out in your ferrari in the extreme cold. So, now that I have to replace the front, because it cannt be fixed....what should I do? Can someone show me an alternate fron end on the 91 348ts? I would like a carbon fibre spoiler lip....but what about the rest?

    I'd like to get sources and prices as well. Anyone have suppliers of the under bumper guards as well so we can have them all in this post?

    Sorry to hear about the front spoiler. Yesterday I came out of a driveway a little to fast and scraped my front end. It is cold here as well lucky to have no damage. The carbon fiber one would be the way I would go for me. I know one would look great on my car as it is black. Depends what look you have? Lowers and top painted the same color as the car?

    Don't worry the guys here will be able to give you some great options. Good Luck to ya!



    Regards,

    Mike

    Mine is white and the wheels are powder coated black. I would paint the CF white, except for the lip or lower portion.

    Whats Up Doc, LOL. Anyway, DO NOT buy a new bumper. All the bumpers from the factory suck and are very fragile on the bottom. You can get it fixxed at any body shop that does fiberglass wrok. Have them reinforce it while they are fixxing it. I had mine reinforced and it is ten times as strong as the stock bumper. Matter of fact you can pound on the bottom with your fist and it doesnt do anything to the bumper. The bottom is just as solid as the top now. So just take it off and have it fixxed at a good body shop. I shouldn't cost you more that a few hundred bucks.
