    Complete* Custom F430

    This is a little styling exercise I did on Fujimi's F430 kit.

    I never liked the 'shark nose' openings on the 430 much so I reshaped them. I also reshaped the side windows to mimic the flow of the air scoops on the haunches. Lastly, I lowered the tail lights.

    The body color is a mix of Lambo's Giallo Spyder and Ferrari's Verde Chiaro Metallic. The interior is a mix of Acryl's Sloth Brown and Canine Brown, the black is Dragon Black.

    The wheels are Fujimi's 430 challenge painted black.

    The looks better than the production version.

    The front vents are on the small side, though.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Yup, that looks good indeed. Did you stick a 360 rear end onto the F430 to lower the lights?

    I do like the look of it.

    Nice work!

    The color looks slightly pale but I think it's just the pictures.

    like the back, I thought the front of the stock looks better though.

    Awesome color scheme...

    Thanks all!

    No, I filled the 430 bezels in and drilled new holes.

    Totaly dig it.! "Enzo-esque" side windows are a very welcom change. Front vents do need to be a weeee bigger. Nice shootin' there Dino.
