    I'm considering adding the full carbon side skirts to the Speciale. Right now, it's all just Rosso Corsa, and it's a lot of red. Possible to just do the winglets, yes, but I'm more intrigued by the full skirt in CF. Anyone have any issues with those? Full PPF obviously.

    Beautiful! :) I'm jealous. Full Carbon skirts and winglets would add to the look to me, as long as they're OEM parts. Some folks are fine with aftermarket, just not my jam. What a special car! I have just the lowly Italia. I saw a Pista last summer. It had red tinted carbon throughout. Looked incredible. My lowly Italia is in the back of this picture, next to a beautifully kept Stradale.

    I agree. I’d only use OEM parts. It’s my favorite car we’ve had. Enjoy the 458. The sound is fantastic!

    I added OEM Ferrari Genuine front side air vents and side wings earlier this year at my dealer which were not cheap, but really happy I did as IMO they make the car

    Personally wouldn't go with the full lower panel side skirts because 1) you lose the detail of the wing as it gets lost now with all the carbon behind it, 2) $$$$, 3) I'd worry about debris smacking that CF lower sill

    Last CF bits for me is the engine bay, but I did MyRicambi for that on my last Speciale and quality/stickers came out perfect

    Yeah, I need the side air vents too. I may just do the little wing, but I’m intrigued by that big piece of carbon and the fact that only 3 cars have that sort of option (430 scud, 599GTO, and 458).

    I have the carbon factory
    I have the carbon fiber lower panel factory installed on my 15 Italia and have no problems assoc. with it. Looks good and it was assoc. with the racing option. I/'m surprised the Speciale didn't come with them.
