Just a rough cast of the net

I'm after the 2 interior boot side panels with storage bins from a 5 seat D2. Few on ebay either dog ruff or stupid money (150+ for decent ones!)

Genuine or good quality boot rubber mat

And some genuine/good quality fitted seat covers.

Also, if anyone knows of the centre console cupholders going for a fair price or anyone who 3d prints them give me a heads up 🙂
 
I've bought the STL file for those, but I dont have a 3d printer, yet. However, I'm going to buy a high-resolution resin printer, which offers a much better finish than the typical FDM hot melt plastic style of printer. Most 3d prints have a very pronounced surface texture:

But the cupholders will be one of the first things I print with the resin printer and I'll let you know how I get on with them.

Did you get around to having a go at the cup holders mate?
 
I think OEM ones could be screwed in place.

Yes, I did, got my first prints done, not 100% in love with them, got a few bits of the process to work on, and I think the design I have needs a tweak, but I'll post pics of where I am at with them tomorrow.
I'm actually selling my D2 now because I've put a deposit on a 110 😅 still be interested to see your progress though mate
 
I'm using Stereo LithrogrAphy instead of Fused Deposition of Material type of printer. That means these are printed in a vat of UV curing resin, rather than through the usual plastic fire fed into something like a hotmelt glue gun. quick video explaining the technologies and the difference for you:


Looking at the pics above, you'll see that I've got a lot of scarring from the supports, some striations arising from the film used in the bottom of the vat, along with some splashes where the parts weren't washed cleanly enough. What I thought was just isopropanol on them turned out to be very dilute resin. Rather than evaporating off, it cured on the surface leaving an aretfact that loresembles a run or sag in a brushed-on coat of paint.
