    I used to own a CS with a stripe and man did I love that car. Now that I have the F430 Spider I thought she needed a little something????? So I added the stripe and some other mods to make her my own.

    I think she looks great. I am sure some of you will not like it but interested to see who does and does not? Please post your thoughts.

    Also the car was just lowered 14mm all around, looks much better, also got carbon fiber door sills, CF shift knob w/red stripe and CF shift base. I will post pics soon.

    Thanks to F360 peformance, a sponser here on the site, for the stripe. Great customer service and price :)

    Maybe the only guy with a striped 430 spider,

    Mike

    I do miss the 348. Hell of a car and maybe someday will have another. There is just something about the no power steering that makes for a better driving experience :)

    I like it! Looks great from the front, at the back I think a challenge grill would really set it off. Looks awesome overall, first one I have seen.

    I approve but i have to say that I always especially liked seeing the rollbars covered in leather matching the interior colour...Great looking F430 spider!

    Mike,

    The car looks GREAT.....well done. I'm also interested in getting a CF shift-knob and maybe even a base. Could you tell me who has them????

    Just curious...is that stripe a bit less wide then the OEM stripe? It appears a tad bit narrower....

    Do the C-grill in the rear...va va vooom!!! :)

    Install was done at a striping/ tinting shop. Same guy did my CS for me as it did not have a stripe. Install $150

    Valence, another sponser here on F-chat custom made the CF shift knob just like the factory one that comes with the CF drivers zone. All CF with a red stripe around it. They also have the shift base. They cut me a sweet deal on the knob and the base compared to the prices on the web site and others


    I will post pics of the install soon :)

    Challenge Grill - I agree but need to buy a new bumper to get one. Looks like around $6k plus....OUCH
