    Anyone else get this yesterday? I have received a couple from him before (last time maybe two or three years ago). Not a big fan of this marketing method....though I must admit it works...because I may actually buy them. ;) I just need to do a little more research on the various ones available. Paul definitely has the best price I have seen.

    his shields are very nice, and he was great to talk to on the phone. however, bieng as i dont keep may cars more than 6-8 months, i didnt see the need to get real shields. i got the stickers, and 99.9% of the passers by that see the car still understand its a red ferrari.

    Haven't purchased shields from Paul; but had a situation in Florida with a dealer and Paul very generously offered to check the car out. He's a good guy. (I've also heard good things about his shields). my 2 cents.

    Pardon my stupidity, but are these the same as the Yoshi shields? If so, that's a terrific price!

    Paul is trustworthy and will stand behind his shields.....well at least halfway behind them. :)

    Really is a Florida thread thing.

    Yoshi's are different (thinner). I have a Yoshi set here -- using a small acrylic stand for a shelf display (one of the pair at home and one at my office) -- super high quality.

    Just so happens that I met with Paul today, and bought a pair of shields. He stands behind them.

    He is a businessman doing his business. The fact that he offers a good deal should be welcomed.

    Yes, I got it, even though I have specifically told him in the past to not send this to my addresses.

    I got a spam today from somebody hawking a 360 Modena with a factory sunroof... Engrish was too good to be a mugu.

    I'll post the offenders name and email address when I get to the office tomorrow.

    Actually, Paulie says his are now of a similar thickness (1.5mm), but I am still unclear on any other differences between his and the factory or Yoshi shields.

    the shields that danvehanda is refering to are 1.5mm thick. the original ones I had from a couple of years ago were 3 mm thick. the new ones fit closer to the fender.

    Talked to this guy yesterday.

    He actually seemed like a pretty good guy, I don't think he needs to be slammed. Bought the email list. Those of us who have ever listed their email address in a post here end up on these lists.

    Apparently this car is a two owner car, silver, with a really awful green interior.

    However, the price is right @ $115K with about 6K on the odometer. Car is in Florida.

    Someone here in Texas has a silver 360 with green interior but I don't remember if it had an all green dash and green carpet.

    I just looked at the pictures I have and it does have an all green interior but it is a darker shade green.

    I saw that Ferrari for sale about 18 months ago when I started my search. If I remember right it was owned by a celeb / sports person. I think this is the special Scuderia Belfast interior.
