    I actually had the carbon shields on and preferred the standard...I will look for a picture so you can see the difference....

    The whole black out everything... or all black and white is so cliche' it isn't even funny IMO.

    Nice move! How would you compare Bianco Italia to Bianco Fuji which is the older pearl-ish white?

    I saw the bianco italia on a factory tour and decided on that color...I really liked it much more than bianco avus but didn't have a chance to see Bianco Fuji. It is a triple layer paint so a pricey option but I love it so in the end, worth the cost.

    +1 Have bianco avus myself on the 458, but could not justify the extra money for the paint when it will inevitably get stone chipped and then repaint costs etc if you really plan on driving it. One way around that I guess is the clear bra protection, but I just do not like its finish.

    Good luck with your car craig. When does it arrive?

    It is really hard to describe colors in words and each person's eye perceives things differently. To me, the fuji is creamier and the italia is more bright. Think "ice" white (dare I say Lexus) for Italia and think "pearl" (dare I say Escalade that I recently saw) for fuji. Having said that, both colors really come to life in the light.
    Don't know if this description is accurate/acceptable to others who have seen them also.

    I thought bianco italia was a double layer paint, thought bianco Fuji is the only triple layer white

    No way that's your baby 458Trofeo, the stroller stance is too high, you would have lowered that baby for sure!!!
