    This car was the highest rated 360 on cardomain if I remember right. 21" front, 22" rear. Crazy. Remember it well when I was looking to get mine.

    Surprised you guys like this. Looks like something someone bought at Home Depot and bolted to the car.

    It actually is a pretty good look, albeit a little ricey. But it looks a lot better than the gooey mess that OEM covering turns into and arguably as good if not better than the shiney black plastic. I would just be worried about scratching it or damaging it.

    The vents are a bit overkill, but it's a show car..

    I like the concept a lot much more than this car's part. The border of this "part" isn't a uniform thickness but I like the design of the relief and can see potential for a tasteful version of it.

    I like the idea too, but I've seen this pattern before in cheap sheet metal you can get from a place like HD. This cheapens the car from my perspective.

    My grandmother had this punched metal pattern covering her steam radiators in her apartment back in the 50's. I think you could buy sheets of it in the local hardware stores.

    that's what it says via the part number... what's it actually do?

    edit - video data logging, video, cameras. Wonder how good it actually is.

    Good for track work. Records the lines you took, the G force index and puts all the info onto the recorded vid.

    An example...

    Is that video the ferrari telemetry hardware and software or just meant to be an example? So basically it is almost as powerful as an iphone running Harry's Laptimer syncd to a gopro?

    Yes. But for the purists, Ferrari has the solution.

    Personally, I wouldn't bother. Like you said, the laptimer synced to a gopro does an even better job.

    Yeah, kind of a bad way to advertise the car :). Is there a bracket for a transponder in the front too?

    Knowing Ferrari it would all be hard wired and bolted down.

    This exhaust was designed by Steve at FORZA MOTORING in Etobicoke, Ontario. He also added F430 tips with valves and sounds amazing!!!!!
