Not to be a stick in the mudd... but youve got a serious gap between your front fenders and hood, I can see your engine bay thru it. Not really feeling the yellow calipers, doesnt fit the rest of your color scheme, and your rotors are ruuuuusty.
Besides that it is looking good. Youre on the right track, just try to keep things tastefull and not too obnoxious (i.e. your loudest exhuast ever plan) We have plenty of loud-for-nothing cars already in FL, what we dont have enough of is clean/well put together street cars.
Keep up the good work man, and take what I say for a grain of salt... its your ride, do what makes you happy.

Nice Ferrari. I agree, lowering is better, but all mods in good time.
This exhaust mod, waaaayyyy bad idea bro. Fuel tank no likey the hot exhaust. That shield will only do so much. Start throwing flames and you may see a few more.

welll GREAT NEWS GUYS! i went over to a friends house at night and i was behind this girl and she had to go so i had to back out and i couldnt see cause it was almost pitch black and i put two F*****G giant dents in my rear fender and tons of hairline scratches. because he decided it would be cool to have the jumanji forrest in his front yard with a foot wide driveway 
its looks really easy to get out.......but stilll sucks. its too dark right now to take pictures but ill take some tomorrow and post them 
not a fun night

Ouch.....those dents might be poppable though. Doesn't look like there are any creases there might not be as bad as it looks. The scratches on the bumper though.......fresh paint might get the job done.

Sorry about your luck with the dents.
I'm indifferent about your color scheme as well as the wheels, etc.
Keep working on it and do what makes you happy. Thats what its all about. You don't have anyone else to impress but yourself.
Your pops is ferrari on the other hand is dope. You should trade cars with him
