But could you be arsed to draw round them!? Take some measurements?

An app like QCLONE on iOS may help too

Then the likes of me or markalps could look to model & 3D Print some

Sure, happy to send them off to look at as long as they come back

I just can't keep away

Having a great time but still keeping one eye back at home! I'm actually trying to negotiate a hardtop while I'm out here

Would like to put my name down for one of the 3D printed sets.....

Little early but just throwing it out there... as long as they’re not 10 million billion pounds

They won’t be, more like 20 million billion pounds because they’re in high demand

If Thanatu55 is kind enough to loan me his I’ll work out a cost once it’s modelled etc (markalp may do it first). I’m currently watching a couple on eBay but as my luck always goes it’s between pay packets so not affordable anyways lol

£20? Only? Put me down... oh wait. Million..billion... I’ll pass

Im surprised nobody has contacted a carbon fibre company and done a group buy on these.
I would imagine they would end up a lot less than whats on ebay.

Yes agreed. Better than spending £20 million billion and making IAmOrion... well a million billionaire!!

So you're putting yourself forward then Nictrix?

They're all scared their cheap bits of plastic are going to plummet in value once the replicas hit the market

Wish I had done so year ago when I had some. But, to be honest, I'd still never use them

Previous failures to actually make a 3D print of these covers has only served to maintain the price.

The prize to the first to deliver is untold riches!

WTF just missed out on the set that went on ebay for £202, I bid £197...

Time to get measuring for a 3D model from scratch, not just a scan of the BMW ones. Once I have finished and tested it I will upload and share with the forum.
