In search of taillight cover CAD/3D image

[Relevance]

I have recently identified a plastics manufacturer who feels confident they would be able to recreate the tail light covers, similar to how Phenix Retro Concepts had been doing. At this point, the manufacturer is in need of a 3D drawing/CAD file of the tail light covers in order to get pricing for the quote. If such a file exists already I would be extremely grateful to be pointed in the correct direction, but would also be happy to pay any members with the know how if they are able to create a 3D image for this.

Ian at Impossible Creations in Basildon Essex would be able to scan the cover and make the replacements. I am happy to liaise with him, I could remove one of the lamps on my car, although I currently don’t need replacements.
They do work for quite a few Classic Restoration Specialists.

Pete,

I would be happy to go down this route as well, do you know what material he would be able to make the covers out of? It looks like he does primarily 3D printing and I can’t recall having ever seen something that 3D printed in clear plastic. If you have an idea of what his cost would be as well I’d love to look into this.

I am away at present, I’ll contact him when I am back and see about taking one of my lamps to show him the job.
There’s not much he doesn’t know about the rapid prototyping business he was a pioneer, I worked with him in the late 90 s we used 3D to prove design concepts of plastic parts for Ford projects. Ford then set up their own department.

Sounds great! looking forward to hearing more when you're back.

Hi Pete,

Any update on this? Thanks!
