Even the process is eye candy. Thank you for sharing.

I love the inspiration from this forum, just makes a good day or a bad day better!

Just about given up hope with Falon nameplates for some custom badges so back to the printing and tried a different approach.

Now an assembly. This allows me to finish the silver aluminium and also then the inner black as separate parts. The black parts are finished in a textured satin to give the effect of a cast finish.

The silver sits just 0.2mm above and clearance is 0.1mm so when all together it looks like a single piece.

Then 4 dummy rivets so I can just stick the badges on with 3m tape.

They look great Thumbs Up

How's the accuracy with which ever printer you used? did it require some filing or is it a reassuringly tight fit? 4.0 V8 Defender 90

Just the latest Prusa printer, after a few tests it more or less clipped together. Andy

Moved it from the shed to wash off the dust. Next job is to fit the cage, rack and Lazer 51" light bar and then finally the graphics. Inside nothing really, just the mats and steering wheel and have removed the alloy parts. Surprised how much the alive front springs dropped with the winch so I am fitting some Disco 2 spring isolators to lift it level, may even need to revert back to the standard springs.

Really looking forward to getting these printed next week. Test fitted the blank stencils and all spot on.

I basically traced the images I had onto the 3D scan and then brought all the layers together in Coral Draw. Took a lot of time as both sides are unique. With addition to the Trophy countries I have added the state of Kentucky to represent the LS3 Rolling with laughter

This is going to bonkers good! Can’t wait to see it on the landy itself. Nice touch on the Kentucky map as well. Thumbs Up

Delivered back from Redman Engineering today after having the roll cage fitted, standard springs and D2 isolators fitted, new gear stick location and lots of other things! Body shop next for some tlc and then a nice build back up and graphics.

Took a fresh scan of the interior this evening to get the position of the new shifter, it has moved approx 5" forward now, and raised, feels more like the original. I will need to now create my complete own design but I will base it mainly around the works setup combining some Santorini vac formed plastic and leather, with standard cup holders. Could someone confirm for me the approx width of the standard XS cubby please?

I took this the other day for somebody who was asking about the size of the cup holder, which may help:
