Official GRIGIO TELESTO PEARL G8X Thread

apexes · 12-08-2022, 12:11 AM

Figured it’s time to start an official thread for Individual Grigio Telesto Pearl (P6M). Like many of the available colors, it’s very dynamic with a broad range of shades that range from cooler to warmer tones. Let’s see those GTP G8X’s!

One of my all time fav colors. Let’s see more

Got a TV Jahre. At the dealer getting all my parts installed!

Still keeping the GT F80 which is a manual with cloth interior.

The wheels are epic (HRE?). So is the car. Super sharp!

I'm considering bi-colour 826M, but I think black matches GTP better. Are you happy with them?

Detailer installed the CF breathers during the PPF install.

I would agree that black 826s are better on Grigio Telesto because it gives a bit of contrast. Very happy with them. I find on this color all of the black bits are subtle but provide a very classy contrast including the wheels. There is enough grey on the car, it didn't need any more on the wheels. I would also suggest getting the blue calipers. This paint up close has blue/purple flake that's got a cool undertone which matches a blue caliper really well. It matches well with the blue in the laser headlights too.

Agree on black vs bi-colour. The blue calipers do look great on the GTP. Who installed your PPF? I'm looking to do a full PPF wrap, with ceramic coatings, tints, etc. Need a place that can do it properly with all the CF trim etc.

Never mind. I see from the pics that you might be in Calgary so disregard my PPF question.

Beautiful. The blue interior works well too. I considered it but wasn't sure how it would turn out.
