    I know the most common height prancing horse/cavallino sizes were around 40, 75, and 110mm tall, but I heard there was a emblem used on select 430s that was 50mm (~2in) tall. I am looking for a 50mm tall emblem to make wheel center caps for aftermarket wheels for my 456. The wheels use a larger cap diameter than the OEM caps, and the ~40mm horse looks out of place/small.

    Edit: I think it may be https://www.ferrariparts.co.uk/part/ferrari/80610400?id=139223

    Solved my own question

    I had planned to mount Hamann wheels but instead am going a different route.

    The project is shelved and instead I will eventually get around to selling the wheels.

    I decided to make a cap as proof of concept as I still am not sure if I want to use Hamann wheels on my 456M.

    OE Hamann Wheel Caps were made by OZ and are 62mm in outer diameter (and much much larger than the common OEM 56mm cap). Sourcing blank silver caps, you can re-create a Ferrari style yellow cap using a 60mm sticker. More important here, you can re-create a 456m style silver cap using the above Cavallino badge (80610400).

    I just used a Dremel with a small drillbit to drill two holes and then use the small screws already included with the emblem/badge to secure it in place.

    I made a full set of Hamann size caps in the 456m style. Again, these will NOT standard Ferrari wheels. Perfect? No, but good enough for a 3rd wheel set.
