Carbon fibre interior parts for 355?

[stompboxx]

Anyone know where I can get some from a UK supplier?

Found a US place that does them (MA Carbon), but can't find any UK suppliers - anyone know any?

Thanks

[stompboxx]

Any ideas? Or even just regular interior replacement parts?

I used Powerspeed Carbon for my c/f bits.
Really good company to deal with. Great communication and prices when I bought from them 18 months ago.

Looks great!

Was it easy to fit?

Very easy and everything fitted perfectly.
Only issue fitting the c/f sills was getting my head round the fact that it's fairly impossible to save the originals

Nice! Read your write up too - did you get around to changing the steering wheel?

Did you get the overlay kit then?

Changed the steering wheel from the original megabus sized one to a Momo Race Wheel.
There is a "how to" thread on Club Scuderia for this. Dead easy




Yes, went for the overlay. Appreciate it's slightly perverse to ADD weight with c/f overlay but I guess the 2 grams or so won't make that much difference to the performance and I like the look.

Good move changing the steering wheel. I always thought the 355's airbag wheel looked like something out of a repmobile. To my mind two-seater mid-engined sports cars should always have a three-point steering wheel. Bulky-looking four-point wheels are better suited to large saloon cars. The pre-airbag 355 wheel was much nicer, as is a tasteful Momo replacement.

Hill Engineering can also supply the carbon bits (as well as many other upgraded parts. Great guys.

Can't see the photos - where did you get the wheel from? Surely it still has the Ferrari logo?! Do you have a link to the Scuderia page, had a look but can't find it...thanks

Momo Wheel from the internet somewhere (can't remember where), Ferrari badge from Eurospares and boss fitting kit from Hill Engineering.

Link to the "how to" in the CS Technical Library (not sure if you will need to register to see the pics):
