FERRARI 488 SPIDER

Ferrari 488 GTB
Motorsport Influence, Street Mannered

There’s a sweet spot where race influence meets road refinement. This Ferrari 488 GTB was built to live right there. Shaped by lessons from the 488 Challenge, but grounded in the realities of the street. From the start, the goal wasn’t to transform the car, just to sharpen it. To take what Ferrari created and bring it closer to the edge without tipping it over.

Visually, the changes are subtle but thorough. A full suite of carbon fiber components was added, including the front splitter, side skirts, rear diffuser, fender air inlets, and taillight bezels. Each piece was finished in a uniform weave and chosen to match the factory lines. The additions enhance presence without drawing unnecessary attention. The ride height was revised for better balance, sitting lower and more planted while remaining completely usable.

One of the most defining features is the wheel setup. A custom three-piece forged design was selected for both form and function. Deep-dish concave with a multi-spoke layout, gloss black lips, and satin centers. It’s a clear departure from stock, but it stays within the visual language of the car. Bold enough to make a difference, restrained enough to feel right.

Underneath, performance upgrades follow the same philosophy. A high-flow exhaust gives the twin-turbo V8 a sharper, more urgent tone without overwhelming the cabin. Braking is handled by a carbon ceramic big brake upgrade, offering more bite and consistency under pressure. An FIA-style rear rain light sits below the diffuser, offering a quiet nod to the car’s racing roots.

The finish work received equal attention. The body is fully wrapped in ESTEC hydrophobic PPF, helping protect the paint and keep the surfaces clean through regular use. Ceramic tint on the windows complements the exterior details and adds a layer of comfort without sacrificing appearance.

Inside, the restraint continues. The cabin is finished in black leather with custom red stitching and a full carbon interior package. The steering wheel, paddle shifters, center stack, door panels, and console are all trimmed in carbon fiber. The result is clean and cohesive, with no element feeling out of place or overdone.

In the end, this build is about clarity. Every choice was made to enhance the experience without altering the car’s identity. It is a more focused, more refined version of the 488 GTB. Built to be driven. Built to feel just right.
