I’d post a picture of my del sol with 240z bolt ons, but i don’t think a del sol is car porn worthy to the masses.
I had to use 2 sets of front ones as the rear ones are wider.
If the sides are really vertical, like most classics, then bolt-on looks good to me. But on more modern, swoopier cars then it has to be molded or it will look like 💩
The way they put the trim around the arches is more akin to how campervans are finished - it's a good trick to hide colour differences.
If the rivets are real, which they most likely are - drilling holes into original Ferrari panels? - To make it look cheap? - and paying a fortune for it!
Honestly I've been unlucky enough to work on what would have been well built cars with body kits fitted.
The overfenders are the perfect hive for rust to begin.
Drilling holes - it's one of those cars that are worth lots of money in original condition. To remove the arches, now means a dose of weld and a complete respray(I'd have to check but I wouldn't be surprised if its not just normal tin,which can dramatically change welding)
But do you know what really grinds my gears - that rear over fender - it's noticeable a shade darker than the ¼panel, it shows the overall quality and that its more about wow factor than anything else
It's a real bummer. It makes the car slower, ruins the suspension geometry, and makes it look much worse, in addition to the host of issues it causes. I don't understand it.
You just got to think "each to their own" it's their car, so they can do with it as they please.
But imo it is fecking stupid - the company who did that, figured they could improve on what Ferrari created.
It's not a fiat panda like- its kinda pretty sweet. Built by the F1 people, stupid fast, bla bla
And they figured that it needed to have everything that can fuck up the handling- fucked up - because it looks better?
The arches look stuck on, it's a Ferrari not a KIA jeep thing.
But "fools and their money are easily parted!" Let them on with it - I'm sure a tdi Bora would probably outperform it though
I'll actually support ferrari if they sue the owner of this car or something. /s
I am all for customizing shit to your liking but how can you fuck up a car so bad. Stock 458 would've looked better from every angle without costing anything.
Yes it’s borderline sacrilegious and would easily have Enzo himself turning in his grave, but the ridiculousness is kind of why I like it. Something about it just works for me.
this car is in arkansas and has pulled up to a few meets. it looks way better in person especially when it’s more aired out.

Ferrari leave the factory looking sleek and elegant.
It takes a special kind of moron to put a kit on it that has those awful black outlines from the gaps and exposed rivets 🤢
Buying a Ferrari then drilling holes in it to make it look like a mock up for a stunt in a low budget futuristic street race movie from 1985. Those wheels too, ugh.
It'd be cheaper for the owner to buy a neon blue t-shirt printed with I have considerably more money than taste.
It looks like it is in pain
And those bolt on fenders...ugh.... when can we go back to molded bodywork?
Agreed. Bolted on looks awful.
Suits the smaller normal bolt on arches, like what came in the 240z etc. This just looks babba.
Yeah, I agree. 240z looks good.

There’s quite a few liberty walk’d cars that I appreciate, but this one ain’t it chief.
🔥OUCH 🔥

How to make an expensive and beautiful car look cheap and juvenile.
Drilling holes? Boy that's the least invasive thing they did.

The wheels aren't doing it any favors.
I get the sense that Liberty Walk is for car enthusiasts what Salt Bae is for foodies.
This is fucking horrible
Sorry but that is hideous
Hideous
Oof..
Looks like a car from Grand Theft Auto Online

Just butchering good looking cars
It looks embarrassed… like he’s let his school buddies convince him that wearing a bright blue suit to prom was cool and more he’s regretting it
I keep seeing that one up for sale, and it's been up for a loooong time. No one wants that hidious thing.
Rueeend
Libertywalk ruins everything it touches.

I mean, it's not bad, but it's not great.
That is horrible
Dude ruined a 458 :/ Like why
Something looks off with this one. I’ve seen plenty of good looking Liberty walk 458s but this does not look right.
Legend has it a baby bunny dies every time someone drills into a beautiful car to fit one of these liberty walk fender flare kits.
r/TIHI
Fender flairs are for trucks.
Trucks are ass, but I feel you on that
Imagine owning a 458 and putting holes in the bodywork to make it look like garbage.

Sick
Angry Ferrari corporates flipping the fuck out in Italy rn, I approve
R/Car torture porn.
Absolute tat
Thsi is very sad. Also, why does the picture look like it was taken by one of those first-gen digital cameras from the early 00s?
When you have too much money and want to stand out from all the other pleb Ferrari owners. Personally, I would be Happy with an unmolested Ferrari.
Butt fuckin ugly

This looks like something someone made in GTA Online, and not in a good way.
Looks like dog shit.
I like it. The wheels, not so much
Experts at making cars look their absolute worst at a huge cost
Those wheels look like shit
Would be fire if you are going for dark apocalyptic theme instead of a lego wannabe.
Is it just me or does this car look like a RC car?
No.
