Anyone replace the stock "Eggcrate" grills for the Challenge Stradale grills on the 360? Better yet, do you have pics?
Thinking of changing them on my Modena, but I understand that there is second part that fits just behind the Challenge grill/screen to kinda sandwich it all together. Anyone have experience with this?

I installed a set of Challenge front grills on my 360 a couple months ago to match the Challenge rear grill installed by the previous owner.

There is a spacer behind the grills called............

R/H frame P/N 66307300
L/H frame P/N 66307400

They overlap the air inlet box (shroud) for the radiators.

The stock "egg crate" grills are deep enough to not require the spacer "Frame" (It's built in).

Since the Challenge grill is much thinner there will be a gap between the bumper opening & the radiator shroud.

The reproduction Challenge grill manufacture on eBay states that they are not necessary.

I felt Ferrari knows better & purchased the frames with my OEM Grills.


I paid approx $1k for the whole set.


Not sure a pic would help much since everything is black & blends in & the grill would block much of the view............

Sled,

You are correct regarding the price! I've been researching via the dealer since I decided to make that change. However, for now I have found a set of Challenge wheels. Gonna put those on my 360 first (hopefully this week). I will post pics when done!

Joe, a mate of mine sourced a very well priced front challenge grill set. I'll dig out his email early next week and put the details up.

Even more important than a front challenge grill is to have a rear challenge grill fitted. Makes a huge difference in terms of engine heat venting.

Yes, I have the Rear Challenge grill. It sure gets hot back there. I wonder if I'm not alone that when I get home from a long or spirited drive I open the backhood and let 'er cool a bit easier?

I would do the same. Open it up and let it vent off heat for an hour.
