488 Red or yellow callipers

Went with yellow. Had black on my 458 and always wanted yellow every time I would see them.

My dealer said to never repaint their calipers (but they have repainted many rims for me). So throng about the Aftermarket paint will not hold up to heat. Curious if others have done this with no issues. I have done it on other cars but never a Ferrari.

 

Not Scud…but close…yellow calipers. Seriously either red or yellow look nice. My yellow ties into the badge and yellow rpm gauge.

I have yellow on my white 458, I have yellow coming in my F8 spider (scuderia). I like the black, too (understated).

 

Had black on my white 458, too understated, switched to yellow. Ordered my white 488 with yellow (loved it). Ordered my nero F8 with yellow. Red is understated and classic. Yellow is more bold and audacious! So for that reason I prefer yellow!

 

Here's my F8 with yellow...

I spec'ed my RC F8 with yellow calipers and thought that was *THE* combo I wanted. Ended up pivoting and picked up a RC Speciale that had red calipers and black wheels. Hoping to change out the black wheels for gold one of these days...the black wheels just hide too much.

My 2 cents, Silver calipers change the wheel to silver. Much less of a head ache than painting calipers. Put silver centres and looks good in my opinion.

Yellow calipers will be different shade to the yellow badge. And red calipers will be a different shade to the Rosso Scuderia.

Speciale with black wheels = perfection. Silver/silver combo on the 488, surprisingly pleasing to the eye.

 

Never mix yellow with red unless you are still doordashing for McDonalds.

 

Ha … I was waiting for the first McDonald’s reference

 

Silver calipers look sweet on red cars

my car came with black calipers (car is blue pozzi) and always wished they were yellow.

 

I always wanted yellow but then bought a 458 with red. later bought a F12 with yellow. true what they say that the yellow on red gives you a mcdonald vibe. not bad still pops but side by side i think i like the red on red better. personal preference of course. really hard to go wrong.

 

It was waiting for you!

 

I prefer to think that McDonald's has a Ferrari vibe.

 

I had my silver calipers refinished to yellow (nero Daytona car). I also put carbon fiber shields on to lose the more pastel shade of yellow there. No issues with the paint. Nothing really magical about painting calipers, the factory did it to begin with, after all.

 

Car used to have black wheels and yellow calipers. Refinshed to bronze wheel and body color calipers. Image Unavailable, Please Login
