    The exact Ferrari part is like $250 per bolt, correct ? That seems extreme....as long as these aftermarket bolts meet or exceed the Ferrari shear spec, why not go with them ?

    Looks good!

    I prefer the natural titan color, looks a little bit more "technic". :)

    It was a tough call, but I felt since my car is black, wheels dark and rotors close to black, it was the best subjective choice for me. Appreciate the comment. Last bit I am doing for the car is the Capristo CF engine bay panels to match my Capristo CF air box top.

    Our bolts are randomly tested by an independent lab to insure quality....at a fraction of the factory price. We also offer polished and Black TN coating. Additionally we have spacers and extended bolts.

    The bolts through Exotic Car Gear are great. No issues what so ever. The black nitride dip looks great on the bolts for those with dark or black wheels. I will probably buy a set for my F12 when it comes in.

    Hi Chris!

    Fyi I have the Novitec ti lugs on my car and run the Novi spacers (15mm front,
    and 20mm back) so you can stil have ti lugs and spacers.

    Which spacers are you running?

    Ciao! xoxoxo

    Hi Carlo, hope you are doing well man! I have the same spacers and thought I needed extended bolts. What ti lugs are you running? Are you coming up to my hood for car week? You would enjoy the Cannery Row Exotic event this Friday!
