This mafioso's gone from fedoras to facial tattoos.

The inked-up grandson of a former Gambino family associate is wanted following a near-fatal shooting in Queens.

Robert Sasso, 33, allegedly shot his 39-year-old victim four times during a spat on a Whitestone shoreline near Boulevard St. at 2 a.m. Friday, police said. Paramedics took the victim to New York Hospital Queens, where he was listed in critical condition.

Sasso, who has tattoos on his face and neck, was accused of ordering a hit, ultimately botched, on a construction supervisor who fired him last year — but he was never charged.

He comes from a long line of mob convicts. His father did three years on gun trafficking charges, and his 79-year-old grandfather was convicted in 1992 of helping John Gotti extract payoffs from contractors.
