    Really great spec. Love the seats.

    I just had my clear bra guy lay some signal specific tint over mine, easily reversible that way. In to see what others have done.

    Interesting idea.... I will ask what they say.

    I have had the whole car wrapped in clear too.

    When I was looking to buy I found it hard to find 488gtb Mugello Photos, especially with gold wheels.. Hence why I am putting these up.

    Really like how your 488 turned out with that color combination plus those gold wheels!
    The last Rosso Mugello Ferrari I remember was the 430 Scuderia that came with gold wheels and the wrong stripes. There was a mistake on the build and the Scuderia was delivered with silver stripes instead of the correct gold stripes that were ordered. Much unhappiness as the owner flipped the car to a different non-Ferrari dealer with delivery miles...

    Great spec indeed. The yellow calipers clash with the gold wheels though so I would have them painted in a different color. Apart from that, it's a lovely looking car.

    Thank you and there in lies the question for me.....

    Do I add a gold stripe?

    And if so, what should it look like?

    Worst case scenario, I can always have it removed.

    This was a hard one to try and gauge when ordering, in person they looking great. The only annoying part is that orange marker at the front.

    I think changing this will help.

    Much as I think the stripe adds something to the look of the Pista I would leave the stripe off the 488. Let that Rosso Mugello shine through everywhere!!!

    I'm with Of2Worlds on this. This car looks perfect. I think the stripe would detract from the natural beauty of the spec. BTW you have very good taste.

    Thank you... it does look classier without a stripe.

    I definitely still have to change that orange marker as it clashes in my opinion.

    Thank you. I originally order in black with the rest of the spec the same and then decided I couldn't deal with another black car as they just get so dirty.... My daily is a Turbo S and it is so hard to maintain. As a matter of fact I was already having it polished yesterday after 2 months.

    On a side note I am ordering a Portofino on Tuesday and I am confused as to which color to choose.

    I am thinking Rosso Portofino, TDF, Matte silver, or Grigio Titanio. First world problems... I know, however I would like to have some variation. Image Unavailable, Please Login

    Have you considered Grigio Alloy for the Portofino? Grigio Alloy has the coolness factor of the light and bright greys but adds a dash of color which warms it up a bit. Image Unavailable, Please Login

    Is Grigio Alloy different to Titanio?

    Thank you. That was exactly the theme I wanted to go with. A classic past look and feel.

    Good lord, stunning! I love it.. Really looks great on your ride. I wanted to spec that colour so badly on my Lusso and my wife and SA fought me on it! I do regret it big time! Nice bud, enjoy.
