Owned lots of spirits cars, but this is a first and self inflicted. Parked too close to curb and snapped body molding that is under bumper on F12 It's a bolt on and not painted --I removed carnage . Waiting for dealers ( as usual to get back to me). My guess is an otherwise piece of cheap black molding will cost a fortune in F world Any experience? Image Unavailable, Please Login
The front sword it's something like 1.900 Euro / 2000 USD. I would replace it with the OEM carbon part (4.000 Euro / 4.200 USD). It looks icredible, I have it on my F12.
For those that switched to carbon, who makes an OEM identical part, and does the bumper skin have to be removed? I've not seen one that was aftermarket the very same as OEM and remember hearing that it was surprisingly complicated to replace. Doesn't sound correct though. I like the look of the OEM carbon part but not at $6,000 and not if the bumper comes off. Thanks.
Ferrari designers made awesome job with that little spoiler. In case of damage there is no need to change whole bumper. F12 is only model in Ferrari line-up with that clever solution. In case that you had any other Ferrari you would be in search for new bumper now. I found that little spoiler for GBP £419.59. Just type in Google F12 Berlinetta Spoiler Anteriore and click on first few links. Think twice before buying CF part. As you can see, you damaged this one. Damaging CF one would hurt your wallet even more.
I would only buy the CF part if the other lower exterior elements of the car are in CF. From the side view you can see all the lower elements: front spoiler, side sills, rear area. They form a unified look. I find it distracting when one is different.
