Difference in F50 front spoiler, Euro vs US

RufMD · 05-28-2008, 11:41 AM

Noticed a difference between the euro F50 bumper and the USA version....seems that as in the case of the F40, the USA F50 has a bit of a chin !

euro pic first, usa 2nd.

Ehh...I like the Euro version

Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Absolutely awesome machine whether it's the US or Euro version.

Is it Euro vs US or is it 95s vs 96/97s ? All the US F50s are 95s. Did they make a slight change between model years ?

Does anyone have a picture of a Euro 95 F50?

McDonald's never got this nation anywhere, if anything we should be riding the coat-tails of Wal-Mart, now that's a classy place.

But it wouldn't create the double chin that is on the US spec F50. Thats the Double Quarter Pounder with cheese

Never seen the modified euro spoiler. Any idea why you would do it?

My guess is more likely a F50 GT front spoiler road adaptation.

the same F50 with the F50 GT style front spoiler also has an adjustable rear spoiler , see the photos , are all F50 rear spoilers adjustable ????????.

RAPE could help you out with that if need be...but speaking of spoilers and wings, you could always rice out the F50 a la your F40.

Cursory inquiry to Eurospare drawings, with NO regard to all the possibilities showed US vs Euro [Don't know about NA release, but expecting same as US...though not specifically mentioned, which is unusual]

are different.

The mods above, look to be a one-off owner mod. Don't personally like the black chin. Even though probably very needed for tracking, I can see why if tracked he didn't color coordinate...too many dings for sure.

The moveable diffuser would be a great addition and necessary in black IMO..too

The F50 I bought for two weeks is still on www.modexotics.com. It is a euro spec F50. I am computer illiterate so if you can transfer the picture and post it here, it would be greatly appreciated.
