Hi,

I can easily model a rear cover for a skellenger but it is difficult without a sample. Do you have a technical drawing?

Next week I will finish the Scoop for the left side. The concept is already made.
The main amount of air will go to the exhaust. I am not shure if this part will fit to every Indy. Some have round holes an some have Slots.

My Body is from Las Vegas (Wedoplastics) and it is also a little different from the original one... hope everything fits to your car.

Have a nice Weekend.

Hi Mike,
wow. Looks good (exept the colour) :D
As a Designer I have to tell you that you should buy black Filament...

These parts are designed to print without Support material because my printer has no second print head.

I have Problems with printing ABS (extreme warp) so I had to use PLA. Both materials are not very resistant to high temperatures. PLA is also compostable (never find out what that realy means).

Do you still have a Indy Car? Does the part fit? Looking Forward to see some pics assembled...

Lol. I am still burning through the spools that came with the machines. I bought some white that was on sale. I would like black though. I am stuck painting for now. The part finished and like you said with no supports and it comes out great. Design is the key as its able to print without. Very nice.

I do have a car still but have not fitted yet. But I will.
