    That's a great thing...the blue during the day and basically black at night. I really like that about your color. It makes it interesting, like a woman with moods!

    Yesterday they painted the upper part of the rear shock adsorbers: I think they did it with the wrong color, (Ferrari racing red instead of orange) but at least now they are good looking. I will paint them in the correct color when I will do a full service of all four shock adsorbers this winter

    thank you, Kerrari, and thank you all.

    As the electrician specialist did not show since three months (i hope he will be hit by a lighting in an eye...) and the so the body shop cannot reassembly the front of the car, I went on with details of other parts.

    Here you are the engine lid carpets and, above all, the ****y unfindable Part 60567000, the rubber seal around the outside door opener handlever. It was machined with a machining center from a billet of Polizene rubber. Fits and perfectly works. The design don't show the notch that was done without a CAD-CAM program but with just an eye control and a very small cutter
    tool.

    Your 308 looks fantastic, congrats! Where did you find the carpet inserts for the rear deck lid?

    At a Ferrari interior specialist shop in Modena.They are cheap too (25 euro each). The only problem is that their model is a big too large so I they were cut and remachined (but the interior specialist did it for free as the remachining was included in the price )

    Just saw your post regarding the door opener bezel.
    Our Verell from Unobtainiumsupply.com has them in his catalogue since a long time.
    $47.00/pair.

    And I just see, that you have had the carpets for the engine lid manufactured. Weren't they present prior to your restoration? Or did you just want new ones?
    I still wonder, whether they were present on our late cars.
    Like mentioned on your other thread. My car doesn't have them.
    Maybe some pre-owner has torn them apart? But I cannot see any traces of glue and I don't think, that the French would have done such a thorough job of eliminating any traces and repaint of the lid underside.
    Best Regards
    Martin

    Martin, as French, what do I have to understand ? ;-)
    I think that every good coachbuilder whatever his nationality would have put back carpets after painting if they had been there before.
    The fact that the location is like virgin from any trace of glue strengthens the idea whom they weren't there before I guess....(like for the same period injected cars...)

    :) No offense, but:
    We Germans living nearby the border often love to hoax the Alsace neighbours a bit. But this also applies to the other side of the Rhine river. It's mutual.
    But I admit. You have the better food :)

    Didn't the injected cars have the carpets? If so, I think, that the very last carb cars, which were manufactured after the factory holidays 1980, didn't have them as well.

    Best Regards
    Martin

    Martin, I learned that those seals were available there after doing my one, that was impossible to find. As for the carpets, mine hadn't so I thought my one should have it, even the last owner (tha owned tha car for 20 years) told me they weren't. I stopped their installation while searching for some info. Our cars probably hadn't.

    Yes, Orap, with an impressive cost of 1390 euro, VAT included. They changed everything, that the maximum cost, if you want you can save 300 euro keeping more original parts.

    I have just told the body shop to remove the slim front spoiler and go with the deep one: I like it much more. I can't stand the slim one: the car hasn't enough aggressivity, in my opinion. Fu@k you, Classiche: I don't give a damn if you won't give me the Classiche Certificate as I have the deep one instead of the slim one... and I will save 3 k euro too... :)

    I thought, the Classiche Certificate is somehow important for you.
    Since replacing the front spoiler is an quick and easy job, why not having the car certified with the small one and replacement afterwards?

    Alberto ,
    i would say , i agree with your decision not to pay 3k euros for a certificate,when a car is perfect as your , i think the certificate is not necessary.

    No, as the car is mine and it's not a Classiche property. So I want to do the first "roll out" with the car configured as I like (16", deep front spoiler), after one year of a very expensive and not easy restore. And just then I will put on the OEM TRX wheels for Classiche. I think Classiche will certificate the car with the deep spoiler too (it was a factory option, maybe there will be a red line on the certificate but no more, I think), but if they won't, I will decide what to do at the moment: I have both spoilers painted in blu sera, so I can find a way to come out the problem if it will be necessary.

    Changing the front spoiler is not so easy and quick: it's easy just now as the car has the front bay completely empty and so they don't need much time to exchange them.

    ciao
