    DIY - E30`s printables

    Hello from Ukraine!

    (i hope this is appropriate topic for content below)
    (also, sorry for my English - it is pretty far from perfect. I am trying to use less translator and get more practice - i hope this way has more effectiveness for me in educational side)


    In this topic i will (and you can too) post some of public-shared 3d-designs for our passion e30)
    For about 3 years i own my E30, which is by the way '85 sedan with m10-engine. And from time to time i facing with some parts\details i have\want to install\repair but it's nor available in stock or even in used condition, or has acceptable price. And i won't just deal with it =)
    So i decided to try make some by my own! And there is results so far...

    I am trying to contribute to the E30 community, so most of my designs is free to download. Also there is source-files attached to all of my free projects.

    Each design will have own post, and here, in topic head, will be a list with links to all posted designs.
    Feel free to ask something, or share your makes, designs, or thoughts!

    Description:
    Original components (speaker and tweeter) can be mounted!
    I recommend to skin covers with acoustic-transparent textile or any other acoustic textile.
    There's holes for magnets - this is how covers mean to be fastened to the speaker box. Neodymium magnets i used: L10W5H2.
    Still needs some sand and paint works, but even in "white" color and grey covers looks pretty good on the rear shelf that is also grey.

      Looks like a good solution, especially for those who want a stock look and different components without chopping up original parts. Good work OP!

      If only someone made a non stock rear speaker mount for a touring...

        Perfectly fits on its place. Cover latches made a bit reinforced so it could live long, i found many original covers with this latches broken.

                  May I add a model of myself as well?

                  I didn't like the look of the MOMO hub, so I modelled a replacement cover that fit's over the hub.

                    BMW E30 electrical headlight aim control retrofit.

                    A bracket I designed to fit the Ford Fiesta switch that controls the electrical motors for the headlight aim control. (Popular mod in Germany as it was mandatory to have this option)

                              something I have been looking for is a printable bumper filler for the front license plate delete. A company or two sell printed ones for about $60, would like to try printing my own.
