    Stripe doesn't do much, but that bumper is the cherry on top - my only issue with the car in original guise. Good work +1, looks great.





    EDIT
    Although on second thought it does look a bit front heavy visually - maybe if toned down just slightly ;)

    I think the center stripe may look odd given the crease down the center of the hood.

    I like Scud version better than the tweaked version. The tweaked version is starting to look like the new Mazda 3 "smiley face"

    But the tweaked version's headlight configuration is huge improvement.

    Will you please try the same picture but with the middle of the grill ( where the cacallino is ) painted in yellow as well?

    And without the vents on the side in front of the wheels since the 458 has replaced them with the vents around the headlights.

    Sorry, I had a quick go but I couldn't find the shape of the centre piece in the picture, so my effort looked a bit odd. It's a good idea, though, so if someone wants to copy the pic and see if they can find it, go ahead.

    Instantly looks less Lambo-ish. The front end goes from being the proverbial frog to a prince!

    Could anyone possibly prefer the original to the PS?

    Nero Daytona paint hides a lot of what people don't seem to find attractive about the 458's new image. Like it or no Ferrari looks on the new design as progress...
