Default Just some 3D printed parts

I finally caught the printing bug. Here are few items I'm messing with.

I'd love to get the stl for that block off plate if those gauges are 52mm. One less thing for me to design.

Agreed with shirtz, sadly a lot of the action is on facebook.

DCBE Tech sells a great 3d printed spat for the NB2. Sadly, they only sell the finished part and not the file, but here's some inspiration.

It's a small valve that opens when the brake and clutch are pressed. Magic happens in the ecu and the engine rev limit is set to the correct rpm for the shift.

What material are you printing the aero pieces with? I should get a FDM printer, I have a resin one for printing miniatures. My buddy does have an FDM printer and he designed and printed a set of brake duct adapters. He designed a plug into them so I can plug them when I'm driving on the street or autocross.
