Anybody know where I can find a front grill for my f355 front bumper? I am looking for one that looks like the black Ferrari one.
Thanks,

Nice, I wouldn't have thought of using a grill off a Mini. How much trimming (if any) was required? Also would it be possible to see some pics? I'm all of a sudden intrigued, I have yet to decide on a grill for my F355 fascia.

You may want to contact Amida here on the forum as he makes F355 bumpers.

the only pictures I could find were these. Not super clear but gives an Idea. Not a lot of trimming but I picked up 2 grills and used them for the hood vent and the side scoops so that it all matched. turned out nice and looks OEM.

Wow, looks good MaxQ. I've seen photo's of your car before on the forum, I wouldn't have guessed that was a Mini grill, nicely done!
I noticed it incorperates the side moldings and marker lights, mine does also. As far as I know Fiero Fiberglass are the only one's who make a fascia that incorperates the side moldings and marker lights. Is that where you got yours?

Very nice! I was wondering where I was gonna get something to fill the grill area. That looks perfect!

I purchased my 355 bumper from JimmyS at FieroFiberglass.

Version #2 at this link, looks like the same one posted above:
http://fierofiberglass.com/...es/FrontBumpers.html

EDIT: That may actually be Amida's bumper above... It looks like it drops off steeper from the hood forward, not following the same curve as the hood. The one from FieroFiberglass has a slightly more rounded slope matching that of the hood. Honestly, It's really hard to tell in the pictures...

I agree, it looks totally factory!
I have the same one John WPB, did your's require any glasswork around the groove that accepts the modling? Mine upon arrival has cracking, I'm assuming it was damaged during shipping.

No, mine didn't have any cracks or anything when it arrived. If there were actual cracks and such, it had to be during shipping. JimmyS is a perfectionist and it would not have left in that condition I don't think. I just have some trimming around the parking lights to do to allow the Chrysler parking lights to fit in flush is all.

Is it possible to get a picture that actually shows the grill bars? I need a grill for my AD355 and I can't make it out in these pictures.
