    Allan has some hefty spacers on there. Looks good.

    We seem to be into Maranellos today, to my eye still the most beautiful Ferrari they Company has ever produced. Here's my 575M at a lawn show of the Saratoga Automobile Museum a couple of years ago. Weather's been middling here; Sunday I have a detailer coming for a final treatment before going to sleep for the winter end of the month :-( will try to remember to take and send a few more photos.

    Hi Diane, I put them on a few years ago. They are H&R spacers, I think 25mm for front and 30mm for rear.

    Yes, I think the spacers make the 550 look right, and drives better. I always thought Ferrari should have made this car with this look out of factory.

    Yes, with these spacers, you'll have to use longer bolts. Came with the H&R spacer package.

    Mine looked pretty simple when I bought it too. Although beautiful as they are plain, I've done many mods so far. It's become a yearly thing ........lets see how much I can blow on the car this year....... Mind you just bought a set of 550/575 racing seats to go with it. I will post pics once I pick them up from the docks in Jersey next week.
    Bottom line, no matter what you'll love that car as is or with a little bling. However, your bling could be costing you about $3k to $10k a year.
