Which part of the car does the Rear Cover for Ferrari 296 GTB cover?

RYFT names the part a rear cover and sells it with its 296 GTB rear carbon pieces, separate from the engine compartment part. Because the product name and photos are the main description, Bulletproof Automotive confirms fitment details with RYFT before ordering the Rear Cover for Ferrari 296 GTB, including which factory panel it addresses.

Is the rear cover listed for the 296 GTS?

No. RYFT names the 296 GTB only. The GTS has a different tonneau cover with contrasting extensions around its engine cover, according to launch coverage of the open car, so rear bodywork made for the coupe should not be assumed to fit the GTS.

Should the rear cover be bought with the engine compartment part?

No, not necessarily. The two are separate RYFT part numbers and each can be ordered alone. Owners who show the engine often tend to want both so that the bay and the surrounding rear surfaces match, while owners focused on the exterior may stop at the rear cover.

How should exposed carbon at the rear be protected?

Rear surfaces on a mid engined car see heat from below and full sun from above, which is hard on any clear finish over time. A UV stable ceramic coating or paint protection film slows fading, and washing with a pH neutral shampoo once the car has cooled keeps residue from baking onto the carbon.

Should a specialist fit the rear cover?

Yes. Work at the rear of the 296 GTB happens around the glass engine cover and close to hybrid system components, so an installer with Ferrari experience should do it. They will protect the glass and paint, use the correct fasteners and check that every edge of the cover sits flush.

Description

RYFT Carbon Fiber Rear Cover for Ferrari 296 GTB

RYFT’s carbon fiber rear cover for Ferrari 296 GTB cars is a rear bodywork part in 1×1 weave carbon, sold separately from RYFT’s engine compartment piece. Ferrari dropped the fastback roofline of its earlier mid-engined berlinettas for the 296, using flying buttresses and a visor-like roof spoiler to set the cabin apart from the rear bonnet, so the back of the car is a collection of distinct surfaces. We see the rear cover as a part for owners already committed to RYFT carbon at the back, and it is best judged from RYFT’s photos.

Design

From the side, the 296 GTB shows the B-pillar and Kamm tail that Ferrari drew from the 250 LM; from above, it shows a three-dimensional glass engine cover framed by the buttresses. RYFT’s design brief for the 296 was to follow those factory surfaces closely and add no hard edges, which matters most at the rear, where light runs across large curved areas. In exposed carbon, the rear cover gives that view a texture that paint cannot.

Notes

RYFT titles this rear cover for Ferrari 296 GTB cars; Ferrari gave the GTS its own tonneau cover, and RYFT does not name the GTS
RYFT does not publish a placement diagram for the rear cover, so its photos are the best guide

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
