    I have them...came with the car. The diamond stitch looks better when you take a step back. I'm about 80% happy with them.

    That's why I suggested a pic taken a bit further back so one could see them in context.

    The mats are really nice Christian but as you say they don't really go with the spec of your beast. Whilst you're unstitching the visor label, could you unstictch the diamond pattern from the mats? Would you see the needle holes through the alcantara?

    I am surprised you didnt matched seat style with floor mats, since you ordered custom ones where you could pick design you want. Through past few years I`ve done numerous floor mat designs, and most guys requested design that will be unified with seat styling.

    I thought about the stripe, but didn't think it would match (ordered before I got the car). I was surprised how bright grigio chiaro is. Looks basically white to me.

    Not a big deal. I plan to order the toned down set I posted above.

    Thanks for the rendering. Maybe I will order a set like that. ;)

    Few of these are already produced (for clients here in Europe), so I was glad to share with you that design :)

    FWIW, Andrew made me a diamond pattern alcantara mat for the back area. The pattern was made by my CAD department and does a decent job with the crazy shapes back there. This picture doesn't do his work justice, but you can see how it fits.

    I like attention to details, so stuff like this always catch my attention. Well done!

    I think when you take a step back, the diamond stitched mats do look significantly better.

    Personally I disagree. I think the diamond pattern just means one notices them more rather than them being nicer. I thought Milannos concept was a great compromise.

    FWIW, I think Milanno has a great idea. Not so sure I love the diamond look but I don't hate it and your opinion is the final one.

    Thanks...They (the mats) are growing on me....not ready to toss $500 floor mats in the garbage.

    You have made great choices...certainly better than mine. But, all good people need an intervention now and then. You've got enough good stuff going on in there that you don't need to call any attention to the floor boards. Take a deep breath on trash day, and do what you know you need to do. :)

    No - Ferrari makes OEM Custom ones that are leather on the side with matching stitching and the car designation on the side. I saw you had the standard carpet ones in your first picture. I know this as I just ordered them for my 488 spider (have the standard ones in my 488 gtb). I think they were about 1300..

    Looks cool Christitan.

    I notice your battery tender cable in the picture. Where is the connector on th F12?
    I ask because on my 2013 FF its inside the boot (trunk) but on later build FFs there's a connector outside above the number plate.

    It's inside the rear boot, towards the front upper left hand side corner.
