How? I know a guy who had a receiver hitch installed on his Countach. Sometimes towed a utility trailer. With a dirt bike strapped on it. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
Too big and also too low - but the border of the hood on the sides doesn’t allow to put the shield higher.
Still not understanding what makes it illegal. All kinds of vehicles can pull trailers here. Just have to be within the GCVWR. At any rate, you do realize the picture was a joke, right? Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat

LFA is the only Japanese car that is not overrated, by the way Toyota stole the front design of the SF90, this is a shame.

The darkblue one is nice but the shields are horrible, way too big and in a shixty position. Fortunately the brake calipers are discreet and not yellow. Marcel Massini
Even if a factory stock car has no homologation for towing, with enough time and money any modification can be legalized.
In Europe if a vehicle is not homologated to pull a trailer, it is not allowed to do so. I do understand it was a joke, but decided to reply regarding the legality of the matter. One would need to go through the homologation process, which would cost an arm and a leg. Much easier and cheaper to buy a Land Rover to do your towing, than trying to homologate a car that was never designed to do so.
As the pictures document the owner of this Purosangue in Rosso Magma has put it to good use Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
The painted shields are a fail on this PS, I would (for the first time ever) consider speccing without shields, seen 2 and it looks good.
I have read here several opinions for and against the Purosangue shields and I would like to express mine using some pictures. In the first picture there is a Purosangue with small shields and another without shields mediated by an F12. The reason for using the F12 as a comparative element has to do with the fact that this model has also aerobridges. The first major difference that can be seen is that in the case of the F12, the shields are placed in the upper part of the aerobridges almost next to the beginning of the doors, while those of the Purosangue are in the rear area of the front wheel fenders. Visually, in the case of the Purosangue, it gives the impression that the fenders are placed too low, but it is clear that due to the configuration of the bonnet, this is the highest area where it is possible to place them. When I compare the first picture of the gray Purosangue with and without shields, I personally like the version without shields better. In the last two pictures, a red and blue Purosangue appear, both with shields of larger dimension type. IMO the larger shields seem disproportionate and do not favor the Purosangue's aesthetics from the side view.

makes me wonder how many owners will get their shields 'removed' - it's strange but they really don't fit the car at all
That’s major work as they enamel ones are inset into the body. I am going w/o for sure. Did the same on my Roma and really appreciated how clean the line was.
If I were to place the shield I would put it above on the hood lid just in front of that air exhaust similar to the F12. Overall however it would look best without the shield or consider a paint shield which in the future could conceivably be removed Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
Ordered Purisange without shields. Didn’t have them in my Lusso either. Shields on all others. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
