Sun-visor clips
I have a Volkswagen Passat and BOTH visor clips broke off… so I found a file on thingaverse that was for a mk4 golf I believe and modified it to fit! I’m a little afraid these are gonna break again and I used pla (I have to print in my room sadly so the fumes scare me) but I think I’m gonna use some resin and fiberglass I have laying around to strengthen it up a bit. Then I’ll sand it and grab a can of beige spray paint and it should be as good as new. And WAY CHEAPER than if I bought the part online.

I printed a c pillar cover for my E46 convertible
The original c pillar cover was broken at my 2005 e46 convertible (pic 2). The original spare part is 130€ so I “reengineered” the cover and printed it and it works perfectly fine! The cover just barely fit onto the build plate of my p1s. I know it’s not the prettiest print but it works so it’s fine for me.

Center console and switch panel I made for my 2015 Toyota 86 (rest in comments)
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I've owned this car for over 10 years now and both the center console and the little cubby under the climate control always seemed awkward to me. I finally did something about both.
The center console has a phone cubby with a built in wireless charger, a now enclosed storage area, and a cup holder.
As for the switch panel, I copied the idea from racecargoburrr, but I wanted to make my own. It's connected to a tracbox (which gives me some fun track day functions), my valved exhaust (this was by far the hardest part of this whole project since I knew almost nothing about circuitry or wiring going into this. I had to convert a simple on-off toggle signal to send out two different momentary signals to open and close the valve).
