"Armitage"... the Digibeam build area

[No Bull]

Bond a thin layer of carbon fiber on those (cut from a rigid sheet) and add a bronze bushing in the hinge pivot area and you'd probably have a part that would stand up to the use any of us would put the part through and look awesome.  The dimple area could be cut out and left so the plastic shows through or finished with epoxy etc.

In other news, String and myself have been working together to create parts using his extensive skills of CAD along with my 3D printer...
these handles took over 10 hours to print and though not exact they are pretty freaking close...
they are very solid, and quite usable directly, but i would tend to want to mould and cast with an integral metal form just to be certain nothing breaks.
next will be the outer housing this handle sits in with the required mount areas.
those parts will take over 16 hours each to print.
this is for experimental purposes and not intended to infringe.

Thank you,  i will try and get other parts together for a family photo when i can get some time for them...

Looks very nice!!! Amazing setup you have there!!! 

[Digibeam]

Well, i installed the new key assembly into the column and other than the steering wheel, the system is complete as i also have the control boxes for both the wipers and the turn signals that match the arm switches etc.

now if i can only get the accurate cross bar location i could get to mounting this into my build and eject the present modified Porsche assembly.

one is for the brake system and the other is for the accessories: exhaust bypass, plenum ports etc.

yikes I think that bumper he was kicking off is more than his pay check
it might be like all reality shows where a lot of the deals are just for show? as far as the customers go

good to see some of the interior shots though

[Purple LP670 SV]

Just watched it and can't agree with you more! Most of these parts are highly sought after by ourselves and others yet they are being thrown about like they are garbage. Maybe if someone told them that the part they just threw across the shop was there paycheck they would probably think twice! Looking at that exhaust tip they made just made me feel a lot better about the one I'm working on!!!

[Digibeam]

wow, sorry was that question to me?   i paid 160 euro for the set plus shipping...

on another note i am watching this you tube video of someone customising a murci...

Street Customs | S02E16 | Lamborghini | (HD)

man look how their grunts pull things apart with complete disrespect or concern for the customers car or the parts themselves... most of these interior parts being pulled are actually made from a dense foam... not plastic, not fiberglass... foam... like the console  the dash the hand grip the knee pad etc.  and buddy just drags and tosses these parts around like they are corolla parts....  just saying... if that was my car and i watching this show of them treating it like that?... i would say it would be the last time.
