Print setup plan

Useful setup guidance without pretending STL byte size can predict filament, cost, or print time.

Material plan

PETG / ASA

Published material guidance; still check heat, UV, load, and printer compatibility.

Starting setup

25% infill

A planning starting point only; wall count, orientation, and geometry often matter more than infill.

Final totals

Confirm in slicer

Choose the needed variant, then slice it for grams, cost, and print time.

Saved setup guidance is used for material, infill, support, and per-file recommendation text; editable numbers are planning estimates only.

Description

Designed as a lighterweight alternative to the full width number plate plinth, can utilise the existing top plinth mount holes and fixings, or drill your own, or stick on with pU adhesive. Front faces are perpendicular to centreline of the car when about 370mm apart. Left and and right hand version to make the pair. Features: Lightweight - saving 100-odd grammes over standard Allows fitment of standard UK number plate with a front splitter Vertical adjustment of plate for levelling in situ Drain holes to prevent water build-up in the shell Two mounting holes, the top one works in the pre-drilled standard plinth holes Can be permanently fixed using PU adhesive. Printing: standard quality profile in Cura - 0.2mm. I print with a brim but you may get away without depending on your personal bed adhesion strategy. Support is needed for the holes/slots. Infill 25% for strength, skin thickness 0.8mm. Support infill at 20%, print weight of around 31g each. Optionally rub down after printing to take gloss off print and reduce visible layering.
