Wow... SLIPPERY SLOPE ALERT....

I started this way and I have got to tell you its not been easy. I have ended up spending much MORE than it would have cost me to sell my Modena and buy a 360cs! Ferrari changed a tonne of parts that are highly significant to get the Strad feeling, its most definately not just a body kit! Firstly decide how far you want to take this BEFORE you start doing anything otherwise you'll be spending money like its gone out of style and wont ever be happy with the result until you've spent at big $$$....

In a nutshell I recommend just buying a 360CS from the outset unless your like me and are obsessed with manual shifting. If thats the case good luck, you have a long and tedious journey ahead of you. Expect to spend at least $80K on parts and at least a year getting it all built (thats many months off the road in a workshop!).

Here's a recent pic of my 360 Modena converted to full CS spec (still with Manual gearbox I hasten to add!). To do a full cs conversion requires a lot of work and expensive parts. Full bodywork including rear diffusers, challenge inserts, front and rear cs bumpers, cs side skirts, nulder engine-lid, plexiglass engine glass, cs challenge grills (front and rear), rear diffusers, tri-color stripe, fuel filler flap, 19" cs wheels, titanium wheel bolts, titanium suspension springs, suspension computer, suspension flamblocks, suspension rear anti-roll bar, 425hp engine including cs specific ecu's, cf airboxes, cf air box resonator, cs maf''s, cf engine side garnishes, cf mirrors, cf engine detailing, cf specific colored aluminum airboxes (grey), cs exhaust, ccm brakes, cf engine bay, cf door cards, cs full interior, cs rollbar, cs multi-point harnesses, cf aircon controls, center console, clocks, cf clock inserts, cf seats, cs steering wheel, rubber mats, cs specific kick plates, etc. etc. etc, etc..

Basically, unless you've got access to a CS write off forget it!

I love the CS's front bumper, so I just did the bumper and the skirts. OOhh!! the gas cap and stripe also. The fitting was not easy.

I think what he wants is just the body kit and not the entire interior. I got it on my car as well and as far as I know Specialized Italian in Rancho Cordova is the only place that sells the parts. They do require hours of fitting but at the end of the day it will fit. I started a thread asking if the Stradale air box will fit a 360M and the answer is still no. It's a different attachment system and different MAF meter as well.

 

It looks axactly like my car with the stripe on and the Novitec wheels, Very nice!

 

The CS airboxes do fit the Modena, you just need the plug in replacement MAF's thats all.

 

James, they are Novitec center locking wheels, very similar in style to 430 ones but not the actual 430 items, these look nicer

 

Uh. why not just start with a CS and convert to manual gearbox?

 

Cool thread.

Not sure I would want to convert a 360 to a CS, but it is interesting to see all the after market parts being offered.

Personally I'm more after the Novitec look.

 

are you talking about the part that MAF meter is attached to? The guys that got that CF airbox on ebay try putting it in my car, it fits perfectly but the 360M is a clip on and the CS is a screw on so they took it off and put my old one back.
see here..

Petr,

The list goes on and on, but to complete the CS exterior look, you also need the rear deck lid which has a slight lip at the end, I have not seen any aftermarket yet...///
Also, the seats, exhaust (CS is way better than stock 360)

 

I've made a promise to myself that the first time I roach the front spoiler on a driveway, I will switch it out with a CS version. It simply better lines than the stock bumper. I don't think it would look strange on a spider.

 

Trev. Where did you get the door cards (panels) for the CS?
Any updates on your car?

 

The cavalino on the gas cap is sold separately. Trust me, need to paint the gas cap, it looks bad in alum.

I hope this post is ok..

I just picked up my 360, but I also own a body pannel manufacturing company.. We produce a lot of parts for another car. I have been looking at the challange bumper and the sides of the F430, and been somewhat dreaming about making something.. Not sure if people would be interested in that or if I am even allowed to see if there is enough interest with out sponsoring the forum.

I took a standard 3000GT, and revamped the pannels into the picture attached
