SEAT IBIZA 2007 Wheel Hub cap

thingiverse

Well, my wife wanted to give her car's original grey wheels a fresh new look by painting them black. The original wheel hub caps were not only grey but also made of plastic and showed signs of wear and tear. I thought it would be a great project for me to redesign these caps and share the files with others. To make printing easier, I decided to create the model in two separate pieces, which I later joined together using some sandpaper and glue. I also paused the print job at the first layer to add a red "S" emblem on black, giving it a unique touch. The original cap came with a spring that can be used in this new design; however, if you don't have one, I'm not sure the clips alone will hold the printed cap securely. More photos of the project will be added later for reference. UPDATE: March 7, 2020 - New file uploaded with the SEAT emblem moved up slightly. The updated model is now available as SEAT_WheelCap_V2.1.4Top.stl UPDATE May 11, 2020 - The clips design needs to be adapted as it's not strong enough for its intended purpose.
