    What have you done to your Ferrari and what are you planning to do next? I ask this question as after spending a good deal of money on upgrades/accessories to my previous Fcars, I don't want to fall into the same trap again.

    My CS has the necessary upgrades, ie exhaust, seats, brakes, shields, grills etc......and not wanting to get drawn into the Scud camp and loose a small fortune in the process, what subtle changes would you apply - if any? Personally I love the colour Rosso Fiorano - and who knows, I might just visit a paintshop soon:D

    So c'mon, who's made mods to their cars be they Ferrari or non Ferrari and what's next?

    always liked idea of changing exhaust- changed ali paddles for cf ones and would also swop out the light /clock surround for cf

    think i would like the red centre caps as seen on a US 599 at concorso... but i think they are hard to get hold of
    thought about the exhaust but then again it really is delightful in race mode and looks tasty...
    would like a ally foot rest but to look the same as the pedals
    a red band in the top centre of the steering wheel would be nice but would prob cost a small fortune

    Dear Comrade Tommo,

    For myself, I would make no changes whatsoever. The only slight modifications that I have made are all easily detachable. These are as follows:

    I have six inch long 'White Rabbit Ears' that fit to the roof with suction cups. They are guaranteed to stay in position up to one hundred and sixty five smiles per hour.

    I have another appendage that I am having for Christmas and again it is a very inexpensive component (there will in fact be two) however I cannot reveal what these delightful items are until after they fall into my possession on Christmas Day and when all will be revealed :)

    So, I would change nothing at all.

    With kind regards,

    512 Tea Are

    Blimey where do I start:D.

    So far removed 250 kgs, with a max of 70kgs to go back on.

    In the process of sorting all the wiring out and I am awaiting (today) the arrival of my christmas present to myself, a Pi System 2 dash.

    So next main job is to to tidy up the wiring for the Electromotive ignition and remove most of the loom from the unneeded original gauges and dashboard that I removed:eek:.

    Then order the lightweight ali radiator:)

    Dear Comrade Robert,

    They are safely ensconced within a white satin coverlet ornately adorned with chantilly lace. But now wrapped in Christmas paper. To be fitted to the F-40 on Christmas Day - it's going to be absolutely wonderful - particularly with the 'White Rabbit Ears' . . . . . . . images of which already exist on the 288, F50, F50, Enzo thread.

    With kind regards,

    512 Tea Are

    exhaust change is a major mistake on a CS IMO....you cannot beat that noise.

    Where do you mean for the clock surround mate, the instrument binnacle is already carbon???
