This pack just doesn't end, does it
I saw this magnificent Novitec 458 Speciale...
...and decided to add a Novitec Speciale Edition to this pack. It's not an exact replica, I used more gold details but the main theme is the same. I really hope you like this one guys !!
Thanks 4 all the nice reviews and numerous downloads.
So here it is...
(more screens at the AC screens forum)
Suit by blackcelica, I just altered the color. Where is that guy by the way? I'll send a pm
Some new display colors for the cockpit of the GT2 skins:
GoDaddy
Veleno
and so on...
I made this skin a while ago for personal use for "Tomtiger123" and "blackcelica" but decided to add this as a "bonus" edition to this pack. I think many would find it enjoyable to see this GoDaddy 458 GT2 next to "blackcelica" 's GoDaddy skin of the MP4-12C GT3.
See it as a inspirational partnership between me and "blackcelica", as I provided this skin livery and he created the suit for it
I'm currently holding back on new skins, enjoying passively all that comes on my AC path when I find the time for it.
Enjoy!!
P.S.: This skin pack almost has the same download total as the amount of horsepower on the latest Koenigsegg hyper car!!
Note: the screens below are number 10, the download is number 11 without the Danika Patrick name and photo!! (that livery is still for personal use for Tomtiger123)
Whenever a skinner says it's going to be the final update, he's always going to be wrong...like now
1/I discovered some minor faults in the painting and corrected them,
2/the stripes now are similar across the total lenght of the car (I got the colours mixed up at the rear end)
3/blackcelica was so kind to design a 458 suit for me (the original suit was for LaFerrari), I changed colours to Italia theme, big thanks for that.
4/ While I was allready busy again on this skin, I decided to create my own tyre for this car in stead of the Pirelli tyre I used before. Hope you like it.
5/ I re-installed the original head and tail lights for better texture when taking pics, colouring the lights has a negative effect on the texture. (exception mini led lights)
6/ I changed the front and side logo's of Ferrari to AF Corse logo's, very custom
Some screens of the "new" skin
The green logo on the caliper you see on the screen below has been removed and the logo changed from "458 Italia" to "458 Speciale".
You can see the change on this screen.
This has been a very rewarding skin pack and so it is time to finish it with one more skin, the 458 Speciale Finale. Italia theme, tried to not overdo it, very detailed interior, SUIT BY "blackcelica", I changed the colours into Italia theme. I want to thank him for making these great suits and that he lets me use them, big thanks!!
Hope you like the final skin, guys. Over a 1,000 downloads, this feels nice!!!
Big thanks to all enthusiasts

I upgraded all skins to 4096x4096 resolution and also reworked the occlusion and shadows of each skin.
The following update will be the last, with one more new skin. (If I have enough upload space, pack is now 270mb)
I want to thank everybody who downloaded this and reviewed or liked it, it's very satisfying to have such recognition for one's work
New tyres and 1 new skin : Speciale Solare GT2
Hi there, I added another Speciale Edition to this skin pack: Speciale Corsa GT skins for the 458 GT2
Speciale livery
Suits, helmets and gloves match the colours.
Rims coloured or black.
Carbon side skirts, roof and rear panels.
Interior door opening has same colour as striping or body.
Little led lights match exterior colours.
Pininfarina logo "hidden" inside exterior body paint.
Hope you enjoy these
So a new update featuring reworked carbon brakes and carbon rims for this new skin: Speciale Estremo Leggera.
A (almost) full carbon version of the 458 (not a copy, own creation).
Included in the update as promised the original head-and rearlights file for better texture if wanted.
Hope you like it. Feeling tired
I messed up the discbrake_blur files, so I fixed every file of every car so it would display the right discbrake colour when in motion and viewing paused during replay.
Future updates will contain:
-enhanced carbon-ceramic looking brake discs for Corsa skins (if succeeded, that is)
This is the current version.
-original light files attached in a single map for those who wish to replace the modded headlights and rearlights with the original Ferrari 458 lights (they just have better texture than the modded files and this improves picture quality)
-some more skins or even a new series, who knows
A new colour for the Speciale and Speciale Corsa skin: Baleno (lightning).
Made headlights dark for all Corsa skins, also dark rearlights. Small striping colour change.
Some pics...
Added Speciale Estremo Ardore (fire or glow)
Adjusted headlights of each Estremo skin to exterior colour. (see discussion for more pics)
Adjusted rear lights for right textures.
Headlight case and striping of the Speciale skins (Fuoco, Cielo, Purezza) slightly darker. Headlights are the same for the Speciale skins.
First of all thanks for the nice reviews. This encouraged me to skin some more for the 458...
I bring you the Speciale Estremo (this tuning edition of the 458 exists for real, but my skins are not related to any design of the edition). The pack contains 4 skin colours. Estremo means 'extreme', and thus the cars look a bit edgier now. The Speciale and Speciale Corsa skins are also going to be further updated with new skin colours, but I want this pack to have some extra special editions
So here it is, currently only the standard versions of the Speciale Estremo skins, race (S3 versions) will follow.
Hope you like them...
some features:
Interior design is similar for all versions, meaning red details throughout the cockpit, alcantara look of dashboard, steer and seats (maybe not perfect yet), only steering wheel has detail colours of the exterior paint.
Exterior changes are carbon hood and roof, striping colour follows exterior paint, black light case, plastic body parts and side skirts painted different, engine case darkened, engines all same red.
Maybe you should see for yourselves and judge the new editions I hope you enjoy these as much as the previous!!
More pics in discussion section
Speciale Estremo Argento (Silver)
Speciale Estremo Azzuro (Ocean Blue)
Speciale Estremo Spirito (Spirit)
Speciale Estremo Tramanto (Sunset)
Tried to achieve alcantara look, lots of red details. Display and steering wheel colours adjust to exterior colour.
The Ferrari suits are made by blackcelica, these could be slightly modified by me in the future.
After messing up previous updates, this update should contain the Speciale Cielo, Fuoco and Purezza skin for the 458 standard and the Corsa skins for the 458 S3.
Added Speciale Purezza
Speciale Purezza Corsa
