Carb posted about it when it was for sale a while back http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=120277&highlight=back apparently it came from the factory like that. FYI 550 Barchetta #352 looks like that now too, new owner added the black wheels.
The black makes the lines of the glass top blend in really well. I never thought that I'd like a blacked out F-car, but I like it.
Not bad on my 456; a bit more modern looking than the stock 17" jobs... Image Unavailable, Please Login
I think the lack of shields is extremely tasteful on that car. If you are going minimalist, best not to stop short
