    Anyone know what is needed to fit the Pista front bumper on a 488 GTB. I like the bumper look. But would want the standard hood/bonnet. Are the radiators different on the Pista?

    I don’t know about the front radiators,but you would still have a challenge with the lower scoop opening. How would that would work with a standard GTB hood?

    The front radiators are completely different. Look at 3:24 in this video:

    And why not put some wings and antenas? Hell, why not convert it into a pickup truck?!

    Here is a step by step on the best way to make a 488 into a Pista.

    1- Get into 488 and turn it on
    2- Drive to your local Ferrari dealer
    3- Trade in your 488 for a Pista
    4- After transferring appropriate funds to the dealership get into the Pista and drive it home

    Its way more than just a front bumper cover...it is a total new hood, new radiators, mounts and under tray. Keep the 488GTB or Spyder looking like it was designed....or trade the 488 in for a 488 Pista. Trade difference in $$$ vs the cost to convert and time spent you'd be better off getting an actual Pista
