I manufacture p-slot centre caps!

Hi all,

I have been messing around with my 3D printer and have managed to knock up a 3D printed centre cap for Pirelli's.

I'm looking to manufacture them on request, sell them and improve them as time goes on.

I am going to look for a claw on the back that Is compatible with the p slot rims.

I am also going to try and mess around with getting the Pirelli embossed on the top. 

If not I am going to use stickers from crazyquiffs and lacquer to seal it.

Let me know if there's any interest!! And I can let you know of cost etc

Cheers,
Alex

I don't have P-slots but gold star for what you have achieved so far.

1983 Mars Red 1.8 Golf GTI
1987 Alpine White 1.8 Clipper Cabriolet

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

I've designed them to have a recess in them to accommodate for a standard cap off the internet. When I used the 56mm one it seemed a bit tight so I've ordered the next one down to see how it fits

Good stuff Alex,:thumbs:your bound to find a market though you need to get them to fix on and come off properly.
I would have loved a set but I sold the wheels years ago for next to nothing! as i did not realise what they were:'(Marcus.
