    I had this 6 foot heavy vinyl poster made of my 355 to hang in the garage. I think it's pretty cool because it is actually my car not just another 355. What do you guys think?


    I got it done by Eric from ::FX Graphique - FX Miniature:: email- [email protected].

    They have lots of car banners and do so stuff with miniatures. I had bought and Aventador one from them for the shop but they didn't have any 355 so I asked if they could do custom ones. No problem send a picture. I just shot a 3mb pic of it on the street at the angle I wanted and they did all the photo shop clean up and back ground. Really nice people to work with. I'm sure a guy could get it done cheaper somewhere but I believe I paid 129.00 for the 6 foot 13oz vinyl banner, photo shopping, and shipping from Canada. I'm sure you could save $50 with a good picture that didn't need the photo shop work. I'm happy with what I paid it's beautiful and it's MY car on the wall. Tell them Brian with the 355 sent you if you decide to get one.

    Where did you get it done and how much was it?

    With the fresh paint job on my 348 now is the time to take this picture...

    I put the info in the OP but his e-mail came out screwy. I must have been hitting commas instead of periods. [email protected] Really nice guy to work with.

    its a cool product, but isn't it kind of redundant to have a picture of your car on the wall of the garage in which your car sits?

    Unless you personalize it. One of my favorite posters of my childhood was me and my brothers on my dad's Honda motorcycle.

    30+ years later, my wife recreated that poster with my daughters on the same bike (I own it).

    That would be a cool thing for a car poster...

    I guess you can expect a communication from Ferrari S.p.A demanding licensing fees for the use of their copyrighted products in an image. They read FChat quite assiduously

    Ha Ha. When the Ferrari police come knocking at my door I'll use it to wrap their bodies in.

    # 1 they would have nothing to say to me... I did not make the banner. If they wanted to come after someone for having an image of their own car we had all better get to burning all the pictures and video of our cars.

    #2 there is half a horse image that may be argued is a Ferrari copyrighted logo although the one in the image may be a stretch.

    #3 not my problem if it is, the people who make them have had tons of Ferrari related products on their website and Ebay for years so they may have the licensing to use the images. If Ferrari S.P.A. was worried about them they would have worked that out long ago as they are not hard to find.

    Maybe you can call them up and get the two groups together to make sure everything is up to snuff. Or you could do like most people and just watch your own bobber.

    Yeah, it's kind of like selecting upholstery and curtains with images of anchors for your boat.

    It's my understanding these were used along Rodeo Blvd. as banners when they debuted the Spider.
    Don't know how many they made,maybe someone here knows.But it took me awhile to find one.
    If I decide to part with it at some point,I'll contact you.
    When I had my 355 Spider it made sense,now,maybe not as much.

    I also wanted it because I happen to like the artist's work,but that's another story.

    Well I planned to hang it over my headboard in the bedroom but my wife wouldn't agree to it.
