DNA provide these grp  brake caliper covers as part of the brake kit. There are numerous brake caliper plastic covers available on amazon/eBay.
The Ferrari decals are also available on the sites mentioned.

So after a quick run out after fixing the fake calipers back into the car..

Next problems

Looks like I have either a broken spring, or knackered shocker on the front drivers side.. :(

Looks like the car is 'slammed' to the floor  ;D

Plus going to have to get front bumper to Wayne too, to repair and paint, as it hit the floor going around a roundabout  :o

Yup. Definitely something amiss. May only be mounted oddly though. On other matters: how bloody good does that white look against the charcoal wheel!!!!!

Yep
Thanks for the loan of the springs mark, if that's the problem

Hopefully I'll find out soon

Ok

So shock and spring removed

But spring seems spot on.. no cracks or problems at all

So thinking now that the shock is knackered

A massive thanks to Mark for coming over from MK last night to lend me and help to fit a new shock and spring to the drivers side front.

I've still got the passenger side to change to the new shock and spring too, but thought we would take it for a quick spin to see how it was

Wow, can't believe how good it felt, and now no scraping on the inner lining, and now the ride hight is spot on

I had the horses embroidered on my headrests, and one on the rear "seats".  Roland said I shouldn't have as Ferrari seats were embossed.  But I had them 'cos I liked them.  Ferrari have now introduced them as an option.
Furrari leading fashion again.
Not all problems can be solved with gaffer tape.  For those there is WD40.
Not even gaffer tape can fix stupid, but it can mask the sound.

If you can’t buy it or steal it you have to make it.

So bloody awesome mate. These additions are subtle and IMHO very acceptable.

Saw a real one yesterday - yellow - it parked in a Bunnings (one of those hardware megastores) ... its idle seemed really high but I guess that's Frrrri for ya.

Anyway, yours is bloody brilliant.

Thanks people

I must admit, they look better than I ever imagined...

I looked into embossing the horse instead of stitching, but because I have white stitched horses on the front of the head rests, I think it ties in really well.

I don't want to go over the top with horses, as it gets 'tacky' and looks like a cheap replica.. but because these are hidden from view most of the time, as the seats hide them..  I think they are fine  ;D

And if you decide they're too much, all you need to do is get the black liquid shoe polish out.
