I don't know if it matters and I'm sure Byron can respond, but last I messaged him he said the original group buy price was too low to do again. He gave me a pretty close price shipped though. I would just reach out to him and ask for a quote.

Edit..spoke too soon. Seems he's been banned. Selling without a vendor account I'm guessing?

For the F430 crowd, I *think* it is ok to still run a group buy on FCHAT, you just have to have someone interface with the vendor outside FCHAT to negotiate pricing, delivery, etc, like Tommy was doing initially

If you like, I have Byron's whatsapp contact info, PM me if interested

 

Morimoto makes them for the 360, I just bought a set for 1,200. Seem to be very high quality like all the Morimoto stuff. Check them out online, they were delivered 2 days after I ordered them. You can buy direct or through headlight revolution.

I’m selling mine. I hesitated in the beginning due to me liking the factory headlight more. But I want to see it in person. Now that I do, I do prefer the factory option. If anyone interested, let me know and I’ll sell mine to you.

 

Hi when you say functionality is below OEM?

What do you mean please?

 

The mounting and build is superior imo. I don’t know why Ferrari decided to only use 3 mounting instead of 4. The light is much more solid and I think will be better with 4 mounting tabs to prevent breakage. The light itself is subjective. To me the styling is not really what I’m looking for. In my previous post I said I prefer the stock look with the clear center. After I received this it’s still my preference. The light output also not as bright as factory which surprised me as these are led. It does looks beautiful when light up. But most of the time I don’t have the car with the light up so my preference is the stock one. I mounted one side and now I took it off and will be putting it for sale.

 

Just sharing my experience so far

I think if they were 3-5 times brighter, they would be selling a lot more of them.

At night, they are unmistakably seeable and recognizable and though they don't throw as much light as OEM, they illuminate nearly as bright so I can accept that.

So I was immediately taken with them from the ad, then, receiving them, they were SO different, I was on the fence.

Then I fitted them and I REALLY liked the fitment over OEM.

Then the illumination looks so great, I found it hard to resist.

Now after walking past the rear of the car many times, every time I do I like them more and more and think they look fantastic. Like Joe said at one point its almost like, how was I even on the fence....

I had a similar experience with my wheels change.

Let's face it, the car looks amazing the way it drove out of the factory and it is iconic, so any significant change is going to take some getting used to.

 

My wife doesn’t like them. She says it makes the car look too aggressive and prefers the factory look. I can understand that it might not be everybody’s cup of tea. There are certainly things that I would change about them so I can understand someone not wanting to commit to them. I think they’re a net plus, but I’m keeping my Scud Ing Swiss leds just in case I change my mind later on in the future.

 

It's funny, I was just thinking if the F430 left the factory with these LED lights, and someone came out with a 'classic' look that looks like the OEM ones they probably wouldn't sell a single one.

 

The standard lights in the day are dim and hardly light up?

If the halo's where to bright surely you would get blead and they will look tacky?

 

To me, the level of light from the “running” light is perfectly acceptable in the daytime. I wouldn’t want them confused with brake lights anyway. Otherwise, I feel it would be too bright at night. The actual brake light is more than an improvement over stock lighting in my opinion. I think the light levels are tuned just right.

 

His US partner is marketing these for $2200 in Ebay. I don't think there will be a lot of interest at that price point considering the light output isn't overwhelmingly well-received. What I am getting from the group buy people is that the brightness is "good enough", however the looks does modernize the car. But for $1500 shipped it is a good buy for what it is.

 

I’m not sure I get why you would want to drive around in the daytime with your lights on, is it an American fad?

I want them to work, ie when you brake in the daytime, they light up enough to alert the drivers to what you are doing, and at night light up enough to show you are there etc.. but also to look nice, have a modern touch and take a few years off the car.

Ferrari must be the hardest brand to sell aftermarket items for, as owners (and for my understanding) around 80% will want, and not stray from OEM! I totally get that, but it’s not like I’ll be selling the original lights and can always put them back. I like modifying cars, more OEM+ and there is very little out there for an F430 and things like the splitters and skirts just look rubbish and trying to hard, so these to me are a welcome edition and pull off the OEM+ nicely.
