F430 convert to SC look?

Wow you beat me to it. I was also wondering if F430 rear bumper was changed to Scuderia rear bumper; would aftermarket Scuderia exhaust fit the OEM F430 headers and possibly catalyst?

 

May I ask where you got your front bumper from and can you post some pics?

 

Post Pics please .... how much effort needed to put the SC front bumper on ? Is it after market bumper or OEM ?

 

Hi guys,

Well i did it to mine with original parts and full carbon too with capristo.

I sold and waitting for my 458 spider

Thanks for the additional photos. Did you just go with a Scuderia Capristo Exhaust that hooked up straight to the F430 manifolds? Any tweaks need to be made or is clear fittings? Thanks.

 

Hi,

Need quite a big job on modifing the rear monting, where the scud exhaust pass on midlle.

The capristo it self , no problemes. it s very expensive too, cost me around 50 000 € for front ,rear , capristo and wheels.

I try to post pics, but i can t for the moment....

Regards

 

I am seaching more pics, some where you can see the mounting changed

Lift lights FTW!!!

 

Kudos to you. I take my hat off for spending that kind of money for the conversion. She must really SCREEEEAAAAMMMMM right now. Thanks for sharing. Absolute passion.

 

Mike, is that an OEM bumper or aftermarket? Looks great!

 

Look like a quality piece. Hate to be a pain but can you pm me your source and any other details (does it come with the screens, hardware, etc)?

 

Has anyone tried ESTA INTERNATIONAL? They have the SC kit in FRP or CF. Prices are reasonable but I'm not sure whats the quality like. I'm tempted to go for the challenge grill with the pony logo in CF as well as the bumper but for the regular 430 pipes (not scuds). I'm waiting for their reply.

Thanks for sharing the pix guys. Just made it more convincing for me to perform the op.

 

Very nice!

 

If you dont mind me asking who makes the kit? Was installation easy? Is that carbon fiber or OEM quality?Any problems incurred? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks again Mike.

 

Another part to consider would be our F430 Scuderia airbox lids for the F430. The Scuderia uses a larger MAF sensor than the F430 so we made carbon fiber airbox lids with all the dimensions of the Scuderia parts but with the smaller MAF opening to fit an F430. Kit installs in less than 15mins and includes performance air filters to increase engine breathing. Sorry but the quality is not the same as OEM...IT IS MUCH BETTER!!!!!

Damn bloody nice Mikesun. I'm guessing its either by Esta International or Stone Carbon? I'm looking at their scuderia style rear bumper in full carbon. It'll have the grille molded together with the bumper (for non-scuderia exhaust outlets) but in full carbon fibre. Nice.

 

I want the Paddles!!!

 

Check your PM

 

TroUble with aftermarket air box lids is that they do not come with the horns which the stock 430 ones have. The horns make a huge difference in the intake volume as I have heard in a mates 430 which is running the tubi cf covers. Strangely, the tubi ones seem to mute the intake noise. It might not make a difference on the dyno, I wouldn't know as I've not put mine on the rollers yet, but to me the intake noise adds to the whole experience of driving the 430. Can you share with us why, apart firm difficulty to fabricate the horns in cf, aftermarket arbor manufacturers choose not to include the horns in their design? I'd change to an aftermarket unit immediately if it came with the horns, No doubt about that!

 

Here is a helpful video by Capristo Germany to those who are thinking of mimicking an F430 Scuderia:

I myself, I am for the real deal, either you've got a Scuderia or you don't
The normal F430 is a great car as well, no need to convert it into a Scuderia

Car conversions reduce the value rather than increasing it, IMVHO!
Because buyers start getting skeptical . . .
