Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I cannot control price much. I have a 5% mark-up on the items, which considering the time, is hardly a justifiable return, but as I am using them, wanted to make available to anyone else.As posted on the 2016 Will Power WIP, I've created a 3-D print for the Chevy Front & Rear Wings in Road Course Trim. With the minimal additional cost, I included both the "Generic" and "Penske" style steering wheels along with an updated dashboard. Generic:  Penske:   Link

Thanks for offering them to the rest of us. Price is very reasonable considering how much time you have put into all the 3D goodies you've done. It looks great can't wait to get my grubby paws on it!

Mine are on their way. When Chris does the work they're spot on.

Great stuff Chris. From my point of view it would take far longer to try and scratch build this stuff on your own so price is a non issue.

I got my new RC 3D aero kit today & been piecing stuff together finding how it fits. Just a heads up when you use the Greenlight rear wing to fit between the bumpers, DON'T grind off ALL of the metal endplates, I did & ruined the wing. Just remove the circumference of the endplates leaving the thickness. If you remove the thickness it will be too narrow between the bumpers. Now I'll have 2 Greenlight cars useless cause I have to use another. When you dry fit the metal wing (with endplates) to the bumper the 3D endplates slide in perfectly. So the thickness has to be left on the metal endplates. The car I'm doing will be a challenge for me painting both wings. BTW it is remarkable at the detail that is in Shapeway's 3D pieces especially the steering column & wheel. All the parts actually.

Very cool!!!
Since this is basically a 3-D file, can this be offered in 1/64th scale? If yes, what would the cost be?

The minimum thicknesses required would make the 1/64 scale impossible without redrawing everything and adjusting the thicknesses.

This seems like as good a place as any to post. I'm having a terrible time fitting the bumpers onto the Greenlight cars. Is it something I'm doing wrong? Lazierfan (Eric) did a fantastic job painting a trio of DW12 batmobile bumpers and clipping endplates to go on the 2012-14 Indy winners. I went to mount them and I couldn't get the bolt to thread. When I took a closer look, I can't make the beam wing go far enough forward to line up with the hole in the gearbox. So then, having a set of 2015 Honda parts, I tried fitting the Honda bumper. Same result, the hole in the beam wing is about a mm away from lining up when it bumps into the back of the gearbox.  Is there something I'm missing here? For the time being my best solution is to superglue the bumper and rear wing into place and forget bolting them completely. They're fantastic parts and I truly appreciate all the design time that went into them, it just seems like someone would have brought this up if it wasn't an error on my part. |

Steve, in my experience, I've never completed a car to that point yet!  When I test fit originally, I did encounter the problem that I broke off the recessed area that the screw hole fit into, and ended up coming up with the solution that a small washer may help secure the bumper. Not that it solves this problem, but my recollections in test-fitting was that it fit OK. I'll see if I can dig something from the "WIP" case and see how they fit. |

Steve looking at your photo the bumper needs to come forward a bit right? Why can't you file enough off the bumper plane (in front) to make it come forward? |
