    So, the one thing that I had not done yet on my 360, was tackle the interior. Other than throw in a pair of 458 Carbon Seats, the interior was stock otherwise.

    Ordered all the Interior Pieces from my good friend R-Tuned! Already had the Mirrors and Rear Window Lovures already, but essentially every piece on the Interior will be Carbon, and then the 458 Seats, along with the Interior and Ferran Automotive Roll Cage, will be wrapped in Black Alcantara. Slippery slope, but...so far in, might as well get it all done!

    Also full Carbon Engine Bay and covers too.

    Will keep everybody updated!

    For anybody that's interested in any CF Pieces for the 360 or F430, can shoot me a PM!

    Nice! Yes, it definitely is a lot, which is why the rest of the interior will be going full Black Alcantara to make it flow better!

    Very nice!

    Rich says hi, haha.

    I'm hoping that the car is finished in the next month or so. Some pieces should be going out for the interior soon!

    Slowly installing some parts! Had to wait for a few more parts.

    Everything should've arrived by now, hopefully finish the Engine and everything related to the engine bay by the end of next week, and then off to the interior shop to get everything redone!

    Fully Cerakote Ceramic Coated IPE Exhaust
    RMR Challenge Intake Vent/Tubing
    RTuned Carbon

    Lots more to come!

    Can see the Ferran Automotive Roll Cage peeking through the rear glass too!

    Welding in the mounts for the Roll Cage.

    Popping in the CS TCU, and then setting the PIS afterwards. And then off to Interior to get it fully done! Will look like this afterwards!

    Alcantara everywhere, with the jersey material for the centres.

    Roll Cage, Headliner, Dash, Seats, Arm Rest, Behind the Seats, Sunvisors, etc.

    And then will be getting the wheel done in Carbon/Alcantara too!

    White stitching with a white Cavallino on the seats to match the wheels.

    Looks great Phil.

    My own R-tuned CF order is inbound, will share when it arrives, can't wait!

    Thank you again for the recommendation and referral over to them.

    Anyone here considering any CF goodies, drop Phil a note and he can help with an introduction...

    Let me get a photo for you! Saw the car for the first time since I dropped it off months ago. Buttoning up all the carbon install, and then testing to ensure no leaks and everything works and it goes to the interior shop right after. Hopefully have it all back for some real photos after a full detail in the next month or so!

    Well done! But what I like best is the miracle tree. Do you also have a fox tail for the ignition key?

    Some more photos...

    Car is back in the shop after the interior to button up a few things. Waiting for my new CF Dashboard Light Switch and Mirror Switch Panel, should be sometime at the end of next week.
