I think that what Incisor pictured is the roof-gutter END, where the guttering stops at each upper corner of the windscreen.Quote:

I was asking whether there might also be a model for the piece that goes around the rear corners, so one end would tuck into the side guttering, and the other into an end of the rear guttering section.
needs lots of supports to printQuote:

this was printed in draft mode
Looking at the photos in the Britcar site the rear corners are part of the long side, the pieces up and over the rear door are separate.
Both of those parts are now obsolete but NOS is kicking around.
I'm putting an order in to Mario tomorrow for some other bits and pieces so I'm asking if he's able to source anything so we can then use that as a pattern.
Phenominal!
Can I ask how long the printer worked to produce that prototype?

Really cool.
I just spoke to Mario and he sold the last one he could get last year
