Just because the F430 is getting up there in age, doesn't mean that we stop developing products for it! We're in the midst of developing some new products for the F430, and want to see if there was any interest in them! 1) F430 Steering Wheel Hub Cover (Photo is of a 360 Hub Cover, the F430 one is more or less the same) Image Unavailable, Please Login 2) F430 Interior Dome Light (Coupe) Image Unavailable, Please Login 3) F430 Front Trunk Brake Reservoir Cover Image Unavailable, Please Login 4) F430 Engine Bay Latch Cover & Heatshields (Latch Box Cover & Heatshields behind the Exhaust Box) Image Unavailable, Please Login 5) F430 Interior Storage Net Trim Image Unavailable, Please Login We've also got an F430 Intake Manifold on hand that we can create a Full Carbon version of, but, will need to gather and see some interest first. Would look similar to this: Image Unavailable, Please Login If there's any other products that people are interested in, we're happy to work with the community and develop them!
Hi Phil, The steering wheel hub cover is one of the items that turns sticky and has to be refinished. It might be nice to just swap if for a CF one. It takes 10 minutes to take it off and reinstall it. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Thank you for your continued dedication to the F430! I really like the steering wheel hub cover Very visible (unlike some of the underwood stuff) and definitely ups the look of the interior I'd be very interested
Same here, I’d be interested in #1 as well, the steering column cover. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
I'm in for the steering wheel cover as well, depending on price. I'm getting ready to look at refinishing mine. How does the CF Weave compare to the Ferrari weave, for those who have the carbon interior package? (like the air vent in the attached photo) Image Unavailable, Please Login
I'd be interested in a combination of the steering wheel cover along with matching CF shift paddles. I don't see the items in the engine compartment that you mention but would be interested in anything to reduce heat destruction.
I need to throw Phil a bone here. I just ordered a CF front splitter from him. His communication was excellent and so was his price. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
I would love to grab the steering column cover for my 360 I just feel $850 is alot. Sent from my SM-G996U1 using Tapatalk
It will MSRP for $850.00 USD as we do for the Ferrari 360 Steering Wheel Hub Cover. Of course, we will have a discounted introductory pricing for all Ferrarichat Members. As of this moment, we're looking at an MSRP of around $3,000.00 USD if we end up launching this. It's quite a lot of work to get it done properly, as it's a very large piece. We'd need at least 5+ Initial Orders to make the run, as the investment into the molds won't be cheap. Yes, this is what promoted me to look into it. That, and the 360 Steering Wheel Hub is well liked, so figure the F430 should be the same too. $400.00 USD w/ Additional Introductory Discount. Perfect! $850.00 USD w/ Additional Introductory Discount. $850.00 USD w/ Additional Introductory Discount for the Hub Cover. Very easy to replace, just a few screws, within 30 Minutes for sure! Perfect! Perfect! Seems there's some good interest in it, should proceed forward with this piece then. $850.00 USD w/ Additional Introductory Discount. It'll be factory matching 1x1 (3K Plain) Weave. Image Unavailable, Please Login You can see the Latch Cover here, and also the Rear Heatshields here also. Thanks Mike! Your piece should be done ahead of schedule, will let you know once it's ready to ship! Sending you a PM!
well I gotta be honest here; that's VERY responsive customer service! Well Done! However; at $850, while that's probably fair, I'm out for now. I spent about $10k on the car over the winter, and I'm still working the shell-game to keep my wife from discovering that truth. haha.
Easier to beg for forgiveness than for permission! It'll be lower than $850.00 USD for the Introductory Pricing. We'll likely offer: 10% Discount w/ Free Shipping on this Piece If we can get 5+ Orders committed, then we can do 15% Discount w/ Free Shipping on this Piece too. Same goes for all the other Pieces that I have listed that will be developed.
With regards to number two is it a factory piece that you have refinished, or just a completely new piece? Is its purpose to replace out for those who have sticky domes? And will be finish match? I nicked mine up a touch when I was hard wiring in my BlackVue and detector. Sent from my iPad using FerrariChat.com mobile app
It's a Full Replacement piece. Purpose is for people who want some more Carbon in their Interior. Finish will be 3K Plain, 1x1 Factory Matching Weave.
Intake manifold has my interest. Is it a full carbon cast or is it going to be a plastic manifold covered in carbon? If it’s full carbon could add a nice intake note. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
It'd be a Full Dry Carbon Replacement. A plastic Manifold covered in Carbon wouldn't hold up very well! It's a very complicated piece to meet, as we have to embed a CNC Machined Flange where the pieces meet into the Carbon, to ensure it's strength and everything. The tooling for this is very expensive to do it properly. You can produce the plenums in a cheaper way, but, then you risk it warping and deforming over time, so it has to be done properly, or not done at all IMO. We have experience with this on the 458 Plenums.
I'm in for the steering wheel cover if we can get to the 5 needed for 15%. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk
Seems that the Steering Wheel Hub Cover will be good to go! Anything else that people are looking for?
