    If they do, Ferrari has sold the license agreement and they'd probably cost $100 per square.

    I know of a guy here in Texas who was able to secure a surplus of authentic dealer showroom tiles from Maranello... I haven't seen them, only heard about them, but I have no reason to doubt the person who told me about it... now tiles from Maranello, THAT would be sweet.

    They used to sell the original tiles from Maranello, yellow w/black horse. I do not know if they do. Make a template, rent a bead blaster and make your own.

    Continental still sells them. I was there yesterday, but I didn't notice how much they cost.

    Man that is going to be one busy garage on the eyes ... :(. Surely you want the car to be the main attraction for the eyes, thus everything else should be reserved and classy ... not IMO trashy.

    I suggest you purchase a Ferrari toilet seat and paper at the same time ;) :D :D ... Maybe brick the house with cavellino stamped bricks, could use those for the driveway too, heck why not get roof tiles too. Gee I'm on a roll here, you could get the fence slats made so they had cavellino cutouts ;) ... and landscape the front and backyard so the grass area is in the shape of the sheild ... with different colour, small hedge plants growing in the shape of the cavellino.

    Sorry ... none of my business ... but too much for me.

    I actually think it's a cool idea Ricky...I would like to just get 3 or 4 of the yellow tiles with the horse or shield. My snap-together tiles are the yellow and red checkered border with carbon (grey) on the inside...if anyone can tell me who sells these, I'm at [email protected]

    God bless,

    The manufacturer of the Prancing Horse tiles is Ceramica Piemme in Modena. The factory floor in the final production area of the factory was tiled with these.

    Their website is http://www.ceramichepiemme.it

    Have you seen how classless the new Ferrari factory is? ... even the motoring reporters when they visit joke about it. Restraint is not high in the Italian culture ;) ... except when they design 2+2's.

    What you can do is tile your floor with porcelain tile like Martinand I did on our garages, then Martin left one square in the middle of the garage and did the logo with the tricolor at the top with cracked tiles in those colors, really cool.
