What have you done to your Ferrari Today?

Took the good girl out first time since changing the timing belts and stuff had my boy driving her for a bit now going to look thing over and more miles and smiles

You know one of those things that bugs you every time you look at it? This was mine. When I bought the car it was missing on cap for the rearview mirror. I thought "no big deal". Well, they are difficult to find and I just kept forgetting. Then I found another thread where Fchat member Dinoart made some using 3D printing.

Today I snapped the missing one on and it felt sooooooooooooooooooooo good. He has them with both the embossed letter and no lettering. I had one on my driver's side mirror as reference so I got the embossed style.

Here you can see the before and after. One click and problem solved! (Well, almost. Got to get a little black touch up paint). Still looks 1000% better than the cap missing.

Thanks Dinoart!

 

Went to the BaT Meet-Up in PDX this morning….not many Ferraris, but thousands of Porsches and BMWs it seemed….along with about one of every interesting car ever sold in the US that you could name. I took the GTS QV and saw a 328 GTB, a 360, a 430, a 458, a 488/F8 (I can never keep those two straight), and the star of the show, an Enzo.
Just as I was leaving, a Blanco/Red ‘77 GTB arrived and I got to chat with the owner for a few minutes. Hopefully we’ll see him on the forums in the near future.
My favorites included this minuscule OTAS Coupe and an LS-swapped Series 3 Quattroporte.

I turned on the headlights then disconnected the battery so they'd stay up.
Then I removed the fronts of the raised headlights.
I removed the US bumper and grille.
Those 5mph shocks were a pain to remove.
Then I fitted my parking lights to the Euro bumper.
After modifying the brackets, I installed the new bumper, then the Euro grille.
Finally, I painted the outer screws on the grille flat black.
All in all, it was pretty easy and a good deal of fun!
I really like the Euro look much better.

Best part is it matches the door speaker scheme.

I fitted this - the Superformance front brake upgrade (which I note are made by Hispec), and then took them for a test drive. Braking is a significant improvement over standard and there is a big weight saving too (not measured, but the difference is quite obvious).

Conscious this has been done before, just thought a more up to date post might be of use.

Any tricks or gotchas to the Superperformance brake upgrade? I'd like to add these to my 308.

 

They don’t come with installation instructions! A quick google shows that a similar set up by the same manufacturer has been fitted to other cars, and so there is plenty of info out there, and I suspect those with more wrench experience than me wouldn’t need that.

Also, I wasn’t expecting the ‘SUPERFORMANCE’ script in white letters across them, but that is growing on me.

Other than that, they are a simple bolt on installation (plus brake bleed) with a big difference in terms of initial bite and stopping power.

The price compared to bigger name alternatives is pretty reasonable too. I am really pleased with them, and thinking about getting the rear set now.

 

This is not really what I done with my Ferrari but I did get my new bendpak md6 lift weights a ton lol had to get off the skid by myself once that use done no bad moving it around

hopeful
This winter I can get to so more project repairs now
