Wonder if anyone can help with this?
Citroen XM, Series 2
Under the front bumper are a pair (left, right) of plastic "tow-eye covers", which are no longer available, and difficult to find anywhere. (Listed as 7418 C8, Bumper access trap assembly, NFP.)
Size is approx 20×20×5cm, and about 2-3mm thick.
Are there any members out there who could 3D print these, in something like ABS (semi-rigid) ?
Colour is immaterial, as they would be painted to match bodywork.

Re: 3D printing needed
The on-going need for these is (no surprise) on the Club-XM site. That breaking car is advertised there too.admiral51 wrote: 29 Mar 2020, 14:30 Chris what about the XM S2 up for breaking in the For Sale and Wanted section ??
We're actually after some of these in quantity (depending on price, of course), hence the 3D request for help.

Re: 3D printing needed
If you have a university or tech college in your area have a chat with them, they will often knock up this sort of stuff in small quantities as part of the schooling.

Re: 3D printing needed
You can place a request here: https://forum.freecadweb.org/. I think there was a spanish section also.
There are people, that even build their own printers, so you will probably get not only the part modeled, but also an offer for given quantity.
