BMW E30, E36 and E46: restoration and rare 3D printed parts

E30: Interior Essentials

The E30's understated dashboard features control covers, defroster buttons, and air vents that are becoming sought-after parts. In dark gray or black ABS, these small pieces are reproduced with remarkable fidelity.

E36: Aging Plastics

Window switch controls, handbrake lever covers, and center consoles can be faithfully reproduced when the original plastics are damaged or broken.

E46: Growing Demand

The E46 is entering the category of 20-year-old cars where parts are starting to become scarce. Mirror controls, climate control buttons, and steering column covers are the first parts requested.

Finishing: Key to Success

For BMWs, we prefer to work with painted resin or post-treated ABS (sanding + textured spray) to achieve the fine grain finish characteristic of BMW interiors.
