    Awesome. You know as far as coupe's go - that may be the best example yet. I have always been just ok with yellow and my wife is not a big yellow fan. But having seen these pics and what you have done, I would say that I would go in this direction when I get a 430. Its aggresive and very tastefully done.

    Now as far as convertibles goes - theres another thread with the Harmony 430 (I believe) that is currently my favorite in that genre.

    Congrats on a great job.

    Stupid question for you.... sorry. How did you tint the headlights? Just clear yellow tint cut to fit? I wanted to put a light mirror tint over mine.

    I usually don't post much in this section but your car is absolutly magnificient.

    I always said that light-colored stitching in a dark interior is the best way to highlight the interior of a Ferrari. Your interior looks very elegant and complete with the stitching!

    And that matte anthracite finish on the wheels doesn't make the wheel dissapear completely like a blacked-out finish. Sublime!

    Well done!

    Thanks I was very cautious about not making the wheels to dark and not read as a separate component from the tire, also pure black looks a bit dirty.

    You have a seriously tight car. It looks a little like some track warrior about to do a midnight run at Le Mans or the NGT in Japan. The mods could've eaaaasily put it over the top but (IMHO) you did a great job. Very sick, I love it - especially those wheels.

    Love the car and the yellow tint is stunning! Great job! Does the yellow tint effect the lighting of the head lights at all?

    The lights are yellow at night but in a very sinister kind of way, very fun!

    This has to be the best looking F430 I have ever seen... and I'm not even a big fan of yellow. :)

    Congrats! It looks awesome!!

    the yellow theme goes nicely with the CF trim. The tinted headlamps are nice. I would guess that the light output is reduced by about 15%.

    Minus the rear view mirror and the mats, I really like that car, and I notice nobody has mentioned the tail lights yet, subtle but effective. Very nice.

    Best
