PCBWAY offers a CNC machining service.... Wonder what these would cost to have made in aluminum?

It's funny you would ask that because those rotor ***** were based on a design another company made that was originally aluminum. But I'm cheap and didn't want to pay that sort of money for ***** so I thought that plastic was my next best bet.
@Watch_me Further to our DM here are the parts i will send you.
A Drivers door plastics bridging brace
B. RHD Shift boot collar
C.Seat Bolt cover
D.Sunshade clip
E.Sunshade bolt cover
F. Rear seatbelt Mounting bolt cover
G. Hatch strut mounting pivot cover
H. Door plastic foam bridge braces (set0
I. RHD/LHD middle counsel switch holders (2 switch)
J. RHD/LHD middle counsel switch holders (3 switch)
K. RHS/LHS small "sails"
L. Mirror base
M. (see below) Lower half LHS rear seat belt pass through/ hatch bolt cover

The only hard part is the "D" feature the **** fits onto. I won't clutter up this thread, but if you guys are genuinely interested in some, shoot me a PM.
@Watch_Me and @Redbul , not sure what you guys have planned, but count me in for modeling things up if you need to spread the workload. I also have some of those parts on hand that I could get started on. I'll have to go look, but I know for sure I have A, C, and H.
Some projects I started a while ago that I'll finish one day.
"OPEN" tabs from trim covers above rear tail lights
Rear wiper rubber seal. Want to make a mold with the print so I can make replacements since they're NLA.
@Redbul That last trim piece in your post, M, is that for the space on the 3/4 trim where the hatch struts sit? If so I need one if you can get a good match to the OEM red interior lol
Yeah. I think we are talking about the same thing. They differ for RHD and LHD, but are extremely fragile and impossible to remove without breaking. They are plastic welded to the panel at the factory and do not have a P/N. I have sent partial pieces of both sides for RHD to Watch_Me; at least the cup shaped part that covers the hole created when it is missing. If he can replicate at least that section in a manner that could be attached to the panel, it would be a big help.

Definitely gonna try and get those done as well as I can, since that seems to be a very big item for A LOT of people. The hardest part is gonna be finding a good way to attach them to the rear quarters. Nothing is impossible though!
LHD with strut base cover missing. Two RHD panels with belt pass through/strut base cover present but snapped in half.
Cant tell if there's any difference between the 2+2 and 2+0 panels as far as that specific piece is concerned, but yeah we're talking about the same piece. Pic for reference.
Im working on a gated trans adapter for the OEM Shifter, this photo is a few revisions old. The car is now in storage for the winter though, so no more work can be done on this project till the spring.

Reason: Accidentally Italicized the sentence.
Does anyone have photos of this small bracket or one that they can take pictures of? It's on the driver-side door plastic, and the only one that I have is absolutely destroyed and I can't find anything online that could help me model one
If you get that from Redbul and make them, I need one bad. I repaired mine with super glue and JB weld and nylon spacers years ago and didn't realize it was a separate piece, and it's now broken again.
I have a printer and scanner but haven't set up either yet lol, so I'll buy one from you if you make them.

You're all good man, when I get the part, and have the time to reverse-engineer it; I'll post the file here for everyone to use. And if you still don't have your printer up, or don't have ABS to print with I can send you one free of charge no problem
Does anyone know of a company or someone that can do individual and or low-quantity ABS injection molding? I have a very solid CAD file for the driver-side door plastics and am curious about the different routes I could take to get them made. I've 3d printed the halves already, Just don't have a good way yet of aligning the 2 halves yet.
