    Default Rear axle nut cap 3d selfmade

    hi guys, lately i lost one of the rear wheel axle nut cover. so having the other still available, we redesigned it in 3d with autocad trying to replicate it as faithfully as possible. we have slightly increased the size of the inner center pin to make it not come out easily. the result is not aesthetically incredible, but I assure you that now it enters the nut and it takes the right effort to remove it. this is the first we do. to be faithful to the original, we would still have to make some small changes, but considering that we printed it with a 3d printer at almost zero cost and without waiting, we can be satisfied. What do you think about it ?

    Final result:





    Interior comparison with stock:



    Exterior comparison with stock:

    Those are very nice! I bought my 2018 used in 2019 & it didn't have either nut cover, so I figured that's the way its suppose to be - until now! LOL....
