    Thanks for the full reveal. Agree with previous post that this now really works with the exterior Giallo paint, not sure it will work so well with my Grigio Titanio exterior paint. Yes a weekend job for you! Happens a lot and until a forum points it out, most people are oblivious to it. Great spec Jackal.

    And the darker color is much better on that wheel for sure.

    great eye noticing the rims in front were flipped LVP488... now that you pointed it out you can't un-see it.

    Guys, I ordered my car in Rosso Corsa with just the Carbon Side Blades, no other carbon on the Exterior. I ordered the Diamond Cut Wheels, and I did Black Daytona Racing Seats with Red Stitching, Red Horse on the Heat Rest and Red Inserts (trying to get a bit of the 288 GTO Michele Alboreto Vibe). Question I have is, so far I did the Yellow Calipers and Yellow Tach, since it is Black and Red inside is it better to get the Red Tach and Red Calipers to maintain a uniformity? I had yellow calipers and yellow tach with the same interior on my 488 and it worked well. Just wanted some thoughts. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and appreciate any feedback.

    Anthony, red exterior, i personally would go with red calipers as well.
    The tach is another story, either black or red would work, but personally i'd go black to keep all the instruments consistent.
    Can't go wrong either way.

    Thank you John, thinking of going the same way, now I have to let the Dealer know. The shields were throwing me off the red a bit.

    Thank you, I am thinking of definitely the Red Calipers, will the background on Black Tach be difficult to read I wonder?

    RC with red calipers and Yellow rev counter myself, old school

    no problems with glare, rev counter practically turns black at night anyway. Matches the steering wheel center cap

    all red interior I’d probably do a red rev counter myself

    Thank you, I had Red Calipers on my other RC cars as well as Yellow Calipers. On this car the interior is Black with Red Stitching and Horse. Appreciate the input.

    Agreed. Go old school yellow. I had red once and I thought the red color was not a good looking red at all. I now have red as my main interior color and trust me a red rev counter won’t match up well. Best , Kirk.

    Thanks Kirk, when I had a Red Rev Container in my first 458 it was not as vibrant as the yellow. I think I have it figured out now. Thank you all for the input. I am hoping the car comes in July making it a MY21 to enjoy during the summer, but there is a chance it maybe later putting it as a MY22 which from what I understand will be the last year of the F8.

    Is that just me, or does it seem that this full standard US-spec F8 sits lower than many examples we've seen pictures of?

    My F8 on order is also RC with yellow / yellow. Makes it just sportier in my opinion.
