These are detail pieces for the front of the Redcat Gen7 which replace the decal headlights and grille with parts that have a little depth (and can also accept 5mm LEDs for real lights), it goes with my baja bumper design.
There is a backing plate which forms a template for the holes that need to be cut in the body as well as a support for the grille and headlamps when they are glued in place (I used super glue)
The backing plate also forms a template for the corner trim which eradicates tyre rub.
I used PETG for all of the pieces except the headlight buckets which are printed in silver ABS (obviously clear PETG for the lenses). I use rigid.ink filaments. The lenses and headlights are small enough pieces that even their sample lengths would do the trick.
Please do share photos of you prints here, and over at my Ossum facebook group if you decide to build it.
Support is needed around the edges of the grille and the headlamp buckets. No support should be used under the mesh of the grill itself.
