    Saw this photo on Dupont Registry. Am I seeing things or does it look like this 360 has F430 headlights installed (in addition to the F430 front bumper)?

    Yep, seen it in Orlando on Shaquille O'Neil's 360 Spider. He also had the seats removed the floorpan literally beaten down so that he could fit in it! It was.....interesting...Lol.

    Keep in mind that other than the e-Dif and other engine/tanny modifications the Cars are from the same platform. The 458 is the quantum leap in engineering.

    I realize the 360/F430 share a majority of parts, but didn't think the 360 would accept F430 headlights (I'm referring to the plastic shield that runs flush with the car, not the actual light-bulbs themselves). The shape for the headlight boxes seem totally different to me. F430 seems more edgy while the 360 headlight box has much rounder corners.


    Not sure if I'm making sense ... maybe the bumper is throwing me off.

    Looks like maybe 360 lights with smoking. Def a F430 front bumper though. Im not an expert, but the whole car looks "wrong" like maybe its a pchop, especially the rear wheel where it tucks into the fender.

    Pity! I saw the thread title and straight away thought Yes! This is something that needs doing. The lights on the 360 really don't allow for high speed driving by night and I really would jump straight on to an upgrade to 430 spec were it possible.

    Those aren't F430 headlights, they are stock 360 with the inside headlight assembly painted black IMO.

    Looks too much like a Photoshopped image. The wheels look pretty unnatural. The headlights are 360s painted black to mimic the 430. Good effort though, looks good but I wouldn't do it if I have a 360. It's charming in it's own right.

    Definitely look PS'ed But no joke guys Shaquille O'Neil did have the front fenders, hood and bumper put on his 360! It looked exactly like that car. Why I have no clue but I had seen it in person up close and personal.
