Front strut cover for early VW Golf Mk1 before year model 1977

thingiverse

As it is no longer possible to buy these plastic strut covers for early VW Golf Mk1 I decided to design and print my own. On my FDM printer I need support structures on the inside/bottom side of the strut cover which gives bad finish of the surfaces. Because of that I did not care so much about the look of the inside/bottom side and only tried to make the upper side look like the original. The original was only pressed in place, but I improved the model by adding threads so they are now screwed in place.
