    Nice! The CF mirrors look good too, and your rossa scuderia paint is glowing beautifully. Beautiful car. Love the look of 360s!

    Did you have the wheel repainted?

    Very nice color, not too dark and not too silver. It's just right.

    19" Challenge wheels look great on any 360 or 430.

    What people should do if they follow the book is to pre - tighten all the stud bolts before final torquing or you risk damaging them, titanium is strong but brittle.

    From workshop manuals...

    Pre-tightening stud bolts: 25÷45 Nm
    Final tightening of stud bolts :100 Nm

    pretty sure they took them off with the gun, and put them on by hand and that fancy tq wrench.

    looks sweet!

    feels like they could use spacers, not sure why but they feel too tucked under the car.

    Thank you all and thanks to Gerry who took those great pictures. This is my car and for those of you remember me a few years ago, the car went through some more Stradale parts including the rear bumper and the entire rear bonnet and the lexan glass. Gabriel sports car in Yonkers NY really did an amazing job putting it on for me. I got another set of the Stradale wheel and had a shop in Dayton painted to that graphite/gun metal gray for me and while the wheels were getting painted, Frank (owner of Gabriel Sports) loan me his star fish set for a entire year sitting in my garage. Yeah, you read it correct, I drove it from Manhattan to Yonkers (15 miles) for the entire year. Just did not want to take it out with thousands of pot holes here in NYC area.
    The car should be lowered a little but definitely not for driving around New York city area, maybe in Cali or somewhere with nice roads.

    Thanks guys for all the compliment, Now that the exterior is done, maybe I will start on the inside.
    Trev, I am catching up to you soon! the amount of money I have spend on this conversion is more than just buying a true Stradale straight up, I am sure you agree on this!
    Ken
