Overall it doesn't look so bad, except for the radiator exhausts new to the headlights, that kind of ruins it for me. But the two tone body is appealing.

yes, the two tone body is appealing and i bet its a great car to drive.
nevertheless the italia looks like a japanese supercar to me. pininfarina continues his odd designwork. first the california,now this one.

This came out great. Got tired of seeing all those other silly hideous tuners.

i wish theyd give it a new exhaust too. and change those 3 stupid tailpipes... and install instead a 2, or four tailpipe configuration.....or i think, the best, one large one, in the middle. anyhow, nice car

three tailpipes is an icon from the legendary f40. Although I dont have a liking for Ferrari range, i respect and like the "salute" to the legends. Ferrari manages that pretty well.

Let me be the bearer of bad news. First, this is 100% a photoshop job. And a bad one at that. The wheels in the photo are Dymag carbon wheels, not OZ. Dymag does not exist anymore. And why would you put a Porsche GT3-style vent on the front of a Ferrari bumper?
Second, Oakley Design is a scam! Please google this company and see how many people they have taken money from and not delivered product. I personally am out over $6,000 in product that they never even attempted to deliver. Please please do your homework. This Oakley 458 is not real and I wouldn't be surprised if ever sees reality. But they will take your money if you try to order some vapor parts.

As a rule, I normally hate tuned supercars. It takes away from the specialness and is almost never an improvement, apart from having more power to tell people about. But this is actually not so bad compared to most.
The styling revisions are minimal (although the reason it didn't already have a splitter on the front is because of those black flaps in the grille deform at speed to make the necessary downforce), the paint job is tasteful enough, I don't like the Porsche-style air-intake moustache at the front, but the wheels look great. It should be law to only have black wheels on a white car.
As long as it hasn't lost any of its ability in the corners - and as long a Oakley Design isn't connected to the sunglasses-for-tools company - this is hard to frown upon. Having said that though, I still prefer the original :-P

I'm a sucker for O.Z. wheels
This is a pretty nice looking kit for the 458, if the central radiator vent isn't so obvious
