Description
The iconic DMC Front Bumper for the Ferrari 430, made from Forged Carbon Fiber. DMC products are certified by TUV, a German government approved authority for car safety standards.
The 430 is a superb looking car however from a distance with the softer curves than the its Scuderia sibling, it can look a little tame. We aim to change that with our new range of 430 Carbon. The DMC Carbon Bumper really is the finisher to any cars appearance. The F430 from factory has quite a tame looking front fascia, that really doesn’t do a proper Ferrari any justice. The DMC carbon creation fits into the factory design, and a more aggressive look. It is absolutely integrated with the OEM lines, not looking aftermarket at all.
The Carbon Fiber Bumper is made up from lightweight and strong Carbon Fiber, produced via vacuum infusion giving both great strength and superior finish. Once the part has been produced and pulled from the mould, it is checked and tested thoroughly before heading to lacquer. Each part is inspected further and checked for tolerances before being hand and machine polished, followed by being waxed and sealed in with high content Carnauba products.
Install:
This is a replacement part, the OEM item needs to be removed for installation. Although fitting is quite straight forward we do always recommend using a trained professional to undertake the install. We estimate around 120 minutes to fit. Ferrari’s from that time tend to be hand-built, so fitting and painting is needed around the edges.
Gel Coat:
DMC Products come with a free Gloss or Matte Coating on all Carbon Fiber items, please leave a note at check out which one you like. If you don’t specify we will add a gloss base layer. However we suggest you to add one additional layer to match your country’s local UV and weather requirements as they differ throughout the world. We also suggest to wax, polish and seal the item further, even though we include a base seal of high quality carnauba product. This can be protective in regions that have high humidity or rain.
Materials Explain:
- Kevlar is made with light carbon material but it doesn’t have a visible Carbon Structure (Lines etc), so you need to paint or wrap it.
- Visible Carbon is a standard Carbon product, 100% Carbon. It’s heavier than Prepeg since it’s hand-finished. This can also cause the lines to be not as nice as in Prepeg Carbon, even though both are made in vacuum. Lastly, Visible Carbon tends to be not as black. Please choose Prepeg for the best quality.
- Pre-Peg Carbon is pre-pegged, meaning the linear structure is well aligned and it’s lighter than other materials because the exact amount of hardener has been applied. Prepeg Carbon is same as OEM quality, you can even choose the carbon weave style you need, to match your OEM Carbon material.
- Forged Carbon is the modern choice, also called marbled carbon. Made from pure carbon fiber material, the lightest among all materials. Same as OEM quality, you can choose glossy or matte as a free lacquer finish.
