Customizing the Ferrari F430 $25 Micro RC Drift Car Part 1

After successfully customizing the $25 RC AE86 with some fresh paint and custom wheels, I'm ready to do the same with this Ferrari F430. Ever since posting that video featuring the AE86, I've received tons of requests that I do the same with the F430. The thing is, I'm not really sure what color to choose or wheel design to make. Because of this, I thought this would be a fun build to let you all decide how I should customize this car. Let me know what paint color and wheel design you think this car should have, then watch out for an upcoming poll where you all can vote on your favorite idea. I can't wait to see your ideas!

A bit of a rushed together video but I hope you all enjoyed it regardless. I appreciate you all watching and look forward to seeing your ideas. 👍

[@that_blue_r34]

Hi make it rc how about color Red

[@unnamedracer9757]

It looks like those tail lights might be able to be easily swapped with red LED bulbs, and it might be possible to add all LED bulbs to the headlights with a little drilling from the inside. However, not really sure about wiring unless they could be wired directly into part of the power switch wiring so that they are all just always on when the car is on.
However, metallic paint looks good in nearly every color, but gloss white wheels look great on nearly everything. (IMO)

[@simonnemec1377]

White widebody

[@alanwilson2813]

Go with something rare but eye-catching like Burnt Orange or Metallic Flake Copper.

[@Carnerd-ri9xo]

Make it slammed small widebody and chassis mounted wing matte black with offset racing stripe

[@rcdiecastnelson5389]

It would look sick

[@KUROSAKURA01]

Also, candy red with black 6 spoke wheels. Add lip splitter, skirt and lip spoiler

[@disnoxis]

i recently got an 86 version and i would like to see more of this stuff soon modding toy grade into hobby grade type stuff on a budget

[@MrFroogy_yt]

Dude this looks sick. Cant wait to see part two. I think a race car green would look good.

[@AlexWeiss94]

I’d say make it like a formula drift car (extreme aero, something sticking out of the engine bay, etc.) that brass finish would look kinda sick on it

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

Very Cool RC cars !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@shadrachsandi3700]

Do some oldschool f40wheels on it

[@exo068]

Nice video!!
Can you make the taillights work with break lights? 🤔 Or maybe some metal tailpipes that look like they go somewhere. I don’t like the ones that are stock. Or a fake engine bay with a glass cover. I have way too many ideas😅

[@jouwa69]

Best idea this hotentotte ever had

[@martinnorth4689]

The glass cover would be really cool with the taillights.

[@rcdiecastnelson5389]

Make it in to a gulf ferrari.

[@Marlon_J.]

Full-body chrome, big back spoiler in Dull black and metallic red rims

[@victorvangrimgamming6784]

Perhaps make it look like the ferrari f430 challenge paint job (pale blue and orange, no decals unless you wish to)

[@kiuviferoz1363]

A tasteful body kit with some five spoke tires would be nice

[@leerobertlascano7917]

Bring back the original red and set the ride height stanced that will really make it great

[@leerobertlascano7917]

Classic big lip rims

[@polkabot8821]

Wide body liberty walk build!!!!

[@alongcamejao513]

I think you should put a wing on the back and wrap it maybe? Something like a camo wrap?

[@bradleybenson7747]

It's October.... so you could do a pink paint job. I think there is even a "paint it pink" challenge or something like that.
Otherwise, I think I'd chose a matte finish over the chrome finish.

[@imnickMF]

Metallic yellow and some F40 wheels would make this thing look clean

[@hunzhurte]

Yellow Ferraris always win the race.

[@beanie_guy6286]

You Can Do a dope liberty walk style

[@cheseborger]

This may have been already suggested, but how about a resin wide-body kit? Like Liberty Walk style!

[@RCSUPREMACY]

I saw this uploaded notification come up last night and was like "HELLYAAAA here we go again on another classic $25 conversion!" Got a chance to watch the whole video! Can't wait to see the final product, You have your work cut out on the rari considering how amazing the AE came out haha I vote matte

[@Zachbrucken]

ok, hear me out. How about orange, with a certain flag on top, and an 01 on the side? I think it would be funny to see something like the "Duke of Ferrari"

[@p.r5135]

If you can do a 3D print a liberty works style body kit and i would love to see it in either yellow or the classic Rosso corsa red

[@Jakefrc]

Whatever you paint it, it would be sick to see a liberty walk/rocket bunny style wide body kit with a wing.

[@andrewsouthern3517]

Red!!!!

[@darrellp76]

I'd go with a matte finish

[@elrood007]

Great video :)
I can’t wait to see you try the 1:24th/ 1:28th drift world.
I am sure you would do awesome things with a Drift Art2, a GLD, a DRZv2, or BMR-X :)
Not the same budget though, but awesome nonetheless ;)

[@xqwerk8444]

Purple

[@road2rockadventures225]

Drift car !!!!!!

[@datboy5009]

Deep dished BBs styled wheels and a color that you haven't used yet.

[@BandAid350z]

Are we ever going to get an update on the 3D printed crawler bodies? Did you ever paint them? Thanks for the cool content. Love your 70 Chevelle!

[@mwestie12]

Maybe make it like one of those Japanese exotics with color shifting paint. Maybe even add some led's.

[@erichensley857]

I think a matte finish would be sick..maybe matte deep red

[@im.him08]

Deep dish wheels

[@tutorialjoe5595]

Matt black

[@BEN-zx5ov]

Do you think you could get one of these and change the shell/ modify the frame itself to fit a tamiya 1/24

[@thomasroux2749]

Where is part 2 ?

[@VLena_art]

Try 3d printing a body kit. It should be doable.

[@deliveredlate]

Where is part 2

[@alexyoung4294]

i have the gtr one and i decide to convert it rwd but now it cant turn right only left turn i rebuild the entire direction nothing to do is there a traction issue ou a bad moder issue ?

[@simonnemec1377]

Wide body

[@akmalamin7518]

you should convert it to RWD

[@KUROSAKURA01]

Ah I had one of those, tried to make it rwd, but it doesn't really perform

[@nightrunnerstv]

Whered you get it from?

[@exiton3405]

part 2?

[@MakeItRC]

This project kind of got put on the backburner for now but has not been forgotten. I will be finishing it up at some point. I posted a #Shorts video showing the painted body and widebody panels.

[@gunnerhaston3292]

Hi 👋

[@TheDaddy187]

"rat rod"

[@davidbaker8355]

Matt

[@Jorpen410]

Well look at actual Ferraris,add extra areodynamics,body work lip spoilers,rear spoilers,paint a simple design of a stallion on the hood but use a monochromatic paint scheme,a shade either darker or lighter of the color of your choice.wheels should not have as many spokes,windows leave as they are,nice European style license plate are extra,color a red or firy yellow but it can change.simple is better with color application.

[@hunzhurte]
