​The Ferrari Commission:
Curator of Speed

When a car is worth $2 Million, you don't hire a wrapper. You hire a steward.
Handling a Ferrari requires more than skill; it requires reverence.

Whether it is a 1960s competition chassis with seven figures of provenance
or a modern Stradale fresh from Maranello, the stakes are absolute. One slip is a tragedy.

I approach every Ferrari not as a mechanic, but as a Vehicle Architect.
My job is to enhance the aggression of the modern era or preserve the history of the golden era,
using materials that respect the paint underneath. 
​

The $2 Million Trust: 1960s Race Livery
 
The Challenge: A genuine 1960s Ferrari Race Team survivor.
One of the last of its kind. Value: Over $2,000,000.

The owner needed a livery that was historically accurate to the day it raced,
but applied with modern materials that would not harm the fragile, original single-stage paint.

The Execution
Period Correct Stripes: 

I recreated the specific White Racing Stripes with Black Pinstripe Borders used by the privateer teams of the era.
The width was calculated to match the exact 1960s FIA regulations.

The "Meatball" Roundels: 
Iapplied the iconic White Number Balls (Roundels) with block-letter Black Numbering.

Conservation Grade: 
The entire livery acts as a protective shield. It looks like paint,
but it can be removed in ten years without leaving a trace, preserving the investment's history.  

White wrapped stripes and lettering on multi-million dollar classics.

​The Modern Conversion: Silver to Stealth


The Concept: "Silver is safe.
Matte Black is a weapon."

The factory Silver was elegant, but it blended in. The owner wanted presence.
We performed a complete Matte Black Transformation.

By covering the gloss silver with a black matte-finish film, we turned the car into a rolling shadow.
The body lines that were once soft are now sharp and defined by the way light absorbs into the matte texture.

It is aggressive, modern, and completely reversible.


The Ferrari Promise: I do not disassemble Ferraris.

I use Knifeless Tape technology and surgical precision to tuck edges without removing panels,
ensuring your factory assembly torque specs remain untouched.
