Insane in the brain: Bagged Ferrari 458 by Sadistic Iron Werks

‘We overcome what some say can’t be done’ – that’s the motto at California-based Sadistic Iron Werks, and when you look at the Ferrari 458 pictured here, you’ll understand they’re not exaggerating that statement.

Boasting 570bhp, a curb weight of 3,450 lbs and a price tag more than $200,000, the 458 Italia should be sufficient in standard. But Ferrari didn’t consider the crazy world of aftermarket tuning, and that is why we love it!

Surprisingly enough there’s actually a fair amount of parts available ‘off the shelf’ for the Ferrari 458 including the wild Liberty Walk aero kit, monster overfenders, a giant diffuser, and even a duck tail spoiler, transform the 458 into some kind of steroid-injected race car… yet it remains totally road legal. How cool is that?

LT Motorwerks – also based in California – were responsible for the exterior overhaul on the Ferrari 458 pictured here. But this wasn’t just a wide arch Liberty Walk bodykit; this was formed entirely of carbon fibre, so there’s literally zero room for error when installing it. The price? Well if you have to ask…
