Is the grill with the silver badge a straight swap as well? Eg, do I need to get the grill with it or will my old one swap out easily too? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks JJ, sounds good. Got an offer to buy at £1800 so giving it serious consideration Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks, will check it out [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi all. I have the opportunity to buy a second hand (43k miles on it) front bumper, off a 2013 GTS, so I could fit it to my 2008 to give it a facelift. Has anyone done this before? Is it a simple swap for a garage to do, or does it require hours of body shop fettling to get it to fit? The one...

Might actually be able to make this event. I should be able to get to Lymm services for 09:00am. Hope to see you all there James Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the explanation Trev, much appreciated. Nowhere near as simple as I thought but great info [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah suspension is next, for sure. Also a giant racing wing [emoji23] Then decals of some sort. Then huge brakes. The list is endless and quite challenging. Will see what money allows. It’s a bit like getting an entirely new car, bit by bit without actually buying one. The process is interesting...

Yes, that’s true, I was still adjusting things in the photo. They do loop back through again Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fair enough, removed. I know not everyone’s choice to do something like this but everything is fully reversible. I’m keeping the original seats so can always retro-fit. New seats are considerably more supportive than the old ones. Not exactly Maserati spec but then I didn’t need to spend ten...

It is done…..! “And Frankenstein stepped back from the operating table, wiped the sweat from his brow, and cried into the darkness, “It Lives, IT LIVES!!”… And so it was, and all it had cost him was months of toil and research, the endless use of a hammer, and the damnation of his own soul...

OMG I just died inside... that's my dream car and I know I don't have the money..... How much does he want for that? do you have a link? lol

Hi Stuart, Been tracking this thread with interest since I drove one last year in Italy with Maserati. We corresponded at the time. I do have a burning question, as I noted from your original project posts on this thread, that you discovered that the original ECU was programmed to just dump...

Thanks, yes, I'll check that out

This is the Gold standard of seating upgrades. I'd love something like this but you benefit from having a grey interior. I have a cream leather/vinyl interior so getting the same colour alcantara seats could prove to be a challenge. Also, I assume the original seats didn't have side airbags...

Cheers guys. All good advice. I'll look into it a bit further and see what comes up.

Ok, so this looks like the point where this idea meets a brick wall. Customer brackets, custom mounting points for harnesses, and some messing with the electronics to switch off warnings etc. So the other option, is to take it to Maserati dealer and ask abut buying new seats and paying the...

I'm not bothered about airbags, or heated elements or any electronics. It just appears that it requires a customer built bracket to fit because its impossible to buy an off-the shelf bracket to actually fit them. The seatbelt light is an easy fix. Its possible to buy seatbelt clips on their...
