Ferrari F355 GTS

Hi Guys, just finished my next one, it's cabrio time - so this time I went for the topless look. Unfortunately the weather changed his mind so I barely see sunlight during taking pics. I was unlucky with the kit anyway, so what else did I expect? I somehow lost the "chrome" parts tree including the rims and the side view mirror inlets, and broke the windshield frame twice before painting and once more after. I used the 599 GTB rims with some very low profile tires to give it a modern look, and replaced the crappy stock exhaust tips with some leftover metal ones, I guess from some Revell Mustang GT leftovers. I used meshes also, but the whole kit is very basic both interior and exterior, so I didn't bother with more detail. I painted it Mazda Velocity Red Mica automotive paint, interior is black / tan. Here are the pics:









On my way back home there were a little sunshine so I tried to catch the mica effect with not much success:



Thanks for watching!

Nice to see one of these completed, and you did a really clean job. I like the replacement wheels too!

Nice one! F355 is one of the most beautiful Ferraris IMO, much better than the current ones. These wheels look really good on it.

Re: Ferrari F355 GTS

Color and wheels really look great on this

Being a serial Mazda owner, I applaud your use of Velocity Red on a Ferrari

Great result. Not sure about the rims, but for sure something different is positive thing...

I still don't like the design of those rims, at least not on 599 or California, but they suit the 355! Well done, very nice build!

Nice work. The F355 has always been one of my favorite Ferrari bodystyles, too!
