Been lucky with mine so can’t offer them up. But will upgrade to CF ones if they get made! Bit of preventative maintenance

Surely just buy an OEM set and then 3D print against those, and you'll make your money back in no time?!

I am looking into cupholders as we speak so would be interested in complete units as well. I have none in mine.

Highly recommend checking out The Ultimate Cup Holder. They are $30 apiece (includes shipping) and will never break like the stock ones do. I've had mine for over a year and have had ZERO problems!

I've had the stock ones in the car since 2008, and I've never managed to break one, despite there being a 500-750ml bottle of water in there almost all the time (including track days), and covering 150,000 miles.
Don't forget to buy 2 though, as your passenger might want a drink too

Still working on my own design. Trying to make them a bit slimmer, but retaining the shape.
As I've not seen the bits people keep breaking on the genuine ones, I've not done any work on those as yet.
