Well here is what I have done so far
Here are the brakes

and the interior , almost done


and working on getting the head/taillights done


and I decided to go with body color instead of the chrome look for the mirrors and windshield frame

and a quick mock up shows that this Ferrari kit is just like all of the other Ferrari kits, suffers from to high ride height

and here is the new ride height

As much as you can lower it lol, I break off the mounting tabs on the spindles and just glue the wheels to the spindle. Now that means that I have to remove the lower part of spindle to allow the wheel backs to sit straight and allows it to be lowered more.

I am sure there might be a better way to lower it, but I have not figured that out yet
