    Hi All, I am new to the forums. I recently picked up a 2005 Bianco Avus White/Red interior F430. I have done a few mods already but a lot more on the way. I have installed Fabspeed headers, S-line exhaust and BBS FI's. The header install was such a pain! I am test fitting and getting the scuderia bumper ready for paint. Next will be adding air suspension , big brakes and the challenge rear end.

    I am very excited to join all you f-chatters. I have found so much useful information. Thank you for sharing.

    Wow...white has got to be a pretty rare color on this model. Wheels look great. You have good taste in mods. What do you mean by air suspension though?

    Congrats on the very cool ride...and being a Ferrari owner!

    As a mechanically challenged man, I respect you having the stones to work on that car yourself, impressive :)

    Nice, congrats. Love the sound of S-line exhaust. I'm thinking of fabricating plate that will allow me to take the silencer off. Anyone done this!

    Looking good. I spent a few years in that area, including some time in Shoreline, Kirkland and Redmond. Was up in Bothell a few times.

    Where did you get the scud bumper?

    Congrats! Another white f430 in WA! I’ll see you around. Definitely a pain to install the headers without a lift.

    Nice car and welcome. I am curious why change the suspension, do you need the ability to lift the front end?

    Also would like to know where you purchased your Scud bumper from as this is a mod I'd like to do?
    Cheers in advance!

    Thank you. I am having a custom air suspension made so I can have maximum adjustability on the height.

    Thank you. I will let you know how it goes.

    Thanks! I figure how hard can bolt on parts be right? I have to admit, these headers were a pain.

    Hey Pat! Didn't know you picked up a Ferrari! Congrats! We definitely have to meet if I visit Cali. Post some pictures of your car.

    Yes James! It took me a while but I found it. Thank you for all your help!

    Thanks Alvin! We should definitely meet up. Lets exchange contact info. Would like to hit up some meets.

    Thank you. I just want to have maximum height clearance.

    I got the bumper from Exotic Auto Recyclers. You can ask for Josh. He has been extremely helpful.
