i was wondering if anybody has any pics of a yellow 458 with a black roof? this is the colour im seriously considering when it comes time to spec my car very soon, however i havent seen many pics of them around. i was thinking of asking my dealer if i could spec my car at marannello, this way i get to see the factory and all the colours of the 458
Looks sharp, but between the big $$ pearl yellow paint and the bi-colour, that's got to be one expensive 458.
thanx for that scud.... however i have already seen that pic. it is the only picture that i have seen and that was the one that made me want mine to be like that. it looks amazing, i just want to see one in daylight from better angles. i just want to be 100% sure when it comes time to spec my car
i dont think that is the pearl yellow, it looks like the standard one to me, id rather get my roof wrapped than pay the crazy money ferrari want for the bi-colour
The car in the picture is Maranello's (UK main dealers) demonstrator. It is Giallo 3 Strati with the roof wrapped black. I have a load more pictures which will follow shortly. Jonathan

thanx for that, it does look really nice. i think im just going to have to try and go to the factory and see what i like in person rather than pictures. because there are hardly any 458s around at dealerships pictures are the only thing to go by.
Fchat member Dimitri has a Giallo Modena with his roof wrapped in 3M satin black. He had his wheels repainted in dark grey as well. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
perfect car.... the only thing i may do different with mine is go for a matte black roof instead of a satin
I think I need to go change my shorts... (looks at car again) Yep, definitely need to go change my shorts. That is such a nice color, and the black roof makes it more so. Wish I could see it in the sun, up close.
I am also very interested in ordering a light color and have wrap applied in matte black to my roof, but the way Oakley Design did, leaving the outline of the side window in the body color as shown in these pics. While I like yellow, I might go white or one of the silvers. I think I will also use the same wrap on the rocker panel below the door and on the side mirrors. Doing the lower panel accentuates the waspish waistline of the car. Of course, dark wheels are de rigueur. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I have no affiliation with this car but thought you may want to see some more REAL photos, (not glossy versions, made for publications). There is a yellow 458 (no black roof though sorry) and as everyother car available in uk it too is lhd and located in France. Not the best pics but you may see something in the photos as they are. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2010101.htm
where is the rocker panel and lower panel situated on the car? or are these the same things? i may do a carbon fire side mirrors not 100% sure about that yet though... dark wheels are standard.... just need to decide whether they will be black or dark grey
