Hi Guys,

This is my F355 of Fujimi just finished. The kit is not really detailed, but overall looks quite good assembled. I put some pedals (as they are not included in the kit!), seatbelts and some PE parts, replaced the rims and exhaust tips. Here it is, thanks for watching:

I agree this is a great replica of my favorite Ferrari as well. I love the size and the lines of this beauty and you did it very well. Nice to see a stock version and not a Challenge car

It looks nice, the F355 is a favorite of mine and I have one built and two more Berlinettas and one Spyder to build.

FYI, and not to pick on your model, but Fujimi goofed on the side glass trim that's molded to the body. It really should not be there (same for the 348). I'm showing it so that anyone else building the kit might remember to fix the flaw. Since I built mine there are a lot more online reference photos available. I think I built mine in 2001/2002.

It's engraved over the side glass and ends at the quarter glass. To look like the 1:1, it needs to be filled. I have to make some proper door panels for my remaining 355's, I just used the 348 door panels in my first one.

Here's a shot of my in-progress 355 that I built years ago, you can see where I added filler on that area and in the rear corners; I ended up cutting out the engine cover and opening the vents. Not one of Fujimi's finest, but it's an F355...it's worth the effort.
