    Guys, on this historical thread below, we had touched on the "name dedication plate"

    https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/550-purist.631121/

    I've been researching the plates and I couldn't find a dedicated thread in our sub forum with photos so I thought I'd start one as a resource.

    Anyone that has photos of dedication plates that can post up examples would be most appreciated.

    Would be neat to see different ones for the 456, 550 & 575.

    Thanks -- Eric

    Since I've seen so few of these.....does anyone have an insight or "gut feeling" for what "type font" and size was typical for use on these plates?

    Or maybe they varied?

    I just looked up that part number because well, hey, it looks cool. Would be nice to get one with my name for the 550.

    Turns out the plate is $600+ USD. Very well then...

    The one shown above….since my interior is carbon I think I’m going to grind off the bolts and then “double sided tape” it on.

    instead of my name - im sure many will think this is dumb….but since my Instagram and Fchat handle are the same I was thinking I’d put that on the plate

    My body feels like 88….my urologist and General practitioner claim I shouldn’t feel older than 68!

    It will be nice to see sometime in real life! ;-)

    I don’t know when…but I’m looking forward to when I can get to Tennessee and can buy a coffee or lunch or dinner and say thanks in person for all the contributions here.

    I haven't mounted it yet. My car has been at the mechanic for 13 months....back and forth for mickey mouse little stuff....every time I drive it away a CEL goes on within 10 miles. it’s comical. I think I'm on my 5th or 6th return. So dumb.....

    fchat and instagram same handles.

    Someone needs to make a repro of these. I looked all over and they are impossible to find (blank). We don’t need mounting bolts either.

    I was so fortunate.

    Perfect treat for a car that has nearly everything….

    Think you can get exact dimensions of this plate in mm measurements?

    I wish I knew the difference between the v8 and v12 version. Is it a size/dimensions?
