    I just received and installed new Scuderia shields on my 348. I picked these up on EBay from overseas for $35. I researched several of the companies selling these and thought I'd give them an shot as they had good feedback. I'm well aware of the more expensive, and most likely better quality ones, but I wanted to see what I could get for $35. I'm very impressed. Not too thick but they still had good feeling to them. Much better than the stickers that were on it before. They required a little tweaking to get the fender shape correct but nothing that took more than a few minutes pressing in the right areas. Here are a few photos of the before and after. All it took to remove the old stickers was a little heat and some 3m adhesive remover.

    I've got the same ones. Quality is fine. They don't have the "spindly leg" issue of some of the other shields either.

    You should post an ebay link so others can find these specific shields as well.

    I actually got mine from retailer 'autogrillbadges.' They have these posted several different times for varying prices. I bid on the auction with the lowest starting bid and won. I posted the link. Hopefully it works.

    I'll have to forward this information along to my parents for their '97 F355 Spider. The badges that are on the car now are metal but the enamel has yellowed.

    Could we get more pics of the 560SL? The shield looks good on the trunk against the dark red... lol

    I had bought the same, but when adjusting the curvature went the broken. After a few days I had to disassemble and re-attach the hologram stickers.

    Rumor is yoshi got squashed by Ferrari trademark people.

    I have yoshi shields. These little close but hard to really tell.

    His were the best - I have 2 sets. although, these look really nice

    Yoshi had a website to sell them and Ferrari's lawyers came down on him for violation. Truthfully, he probably could have fought it as I'm not aware of any registered trade mark for the shields - I'd have to ask my patent and trademark attorney to review it.

    As did I! (I know that they're really not "supposed" to go on a 308, but I like the look.)

    They look great, and I never had any problem with them.

    Those from James who is on Fchat. I bought the carbon shields from him - incredible quality. Here's the thread to contact...

    OP those look great, nice job, and great price. I too had the Yoshi shields on my F355 spider and they were perfectly thin, accurate and beautiful. Some get really worked up about these, but unless the yellow color is way off, most all of them look fine. Even the OEM ones are hardly "perfect". When I look at them closely, you often find sags, fish eyes, other imperfections. ;)

    It was too bad Yoshi-san had to close up his website...I am surprised he didn't try to make it work on Ebay or some other venue.
