    1) Color gauge face (any color) can be the tech ONLY, or the entire instrument cluster.

    2) Carbon fiber LOOK interior accent (change out the alum. interior panels for carbon)

    3) Rear Bumper diffuser (similar to the 430) in black


    - I would be interested to see how many of you would install the above mods on your car.
    - Which ones (would you consider) ???
    - Would you do it yourself, or have someone do it for you ???
    - Do you think it would de-value your ferrari ???

    The most common mods on these cars are exhaust, front and rear challenge grills, and possibly rims. Anything else and I think most of us hear will say "Ferrari's are meant to be driven and not pimped out".

    in my opinion, most CF trim is tacky and faddish, having a similar effect visually as fake wood veneer. the fascintion with CF is highly overrated. i must not "get it" because i'm not interested in the fad.

    maybe a CF shift knob or push-button is ok. very little subtle pieces are better because CF is very "loud", like a plaid pair of golf pants.

    the other stuff is ok. just remember tasteful restraint (unless you disagree with my tastes, of course; i'm just one person with an opinion. make the car "yours").

    agree.

    i'm very hostile to the whole nouveaux riche ghetto pimp baller look on exotic cars. the VIP look is not to my tastes in any manner and is nauseating.

    I like the idea of #1 and 3. #2 is okay if it is not an overlay. I would say it does not devalue the car as long as the changes are reversible. I prefer to do most of the changes on my car myself, but it is a cheaper car!!! Personally I would not do those myself, but mostly because I have other things I need to spend money on (for now).

    Any of the changes you are looking at could be removed and the original pieces could be put back on later right? If that is the case let it rip.
