Accessible? you can buy scanners from cheap to expensive everywhere, 3d printers can be bought everywhere for cheap incl. materials. you just need to put your time and or efford in it... yes molding might be done by someone else, sometimes its cheaper to let someone else do it than investing yourself in it. but everything can be done.
Really nice job, my best friend had 2 sti back in 2003 same colour, he loved that car, he sadly passed this year, he would have loved to see what you did here, amazing great work from both of you.
I would REALLY like to see very detailled info about the cutting you did in Cura and the 3D printing of bumpers or other large automotive interior and exterior parts.
maybe there's some way to remove these from the screen, but at 21:36 youtube puts up two video thumbnails that basically cover the car right at the point where you are showing what it looks like.
Great video guys! Super informative , I love that you brought us along for the entire process. Definitely would love to see more content like this in the future!!
Very nice work. I just started playing with 3D printing on a very small scale with a Prusa MK3S+ desktop. This is such a a great technology and will keep older cars on the road. Not to mention the options for customization and imagination.
Very cool! My only feedback is that for the final reveal, the part we've all been waiting for, it's obscured by the channel logo and large thumbnails for video recommendations. May want to rethink that bit.
Great breakdown, I was gonna do a process video for how I 3d print my parts but now I can just link people to this video :) Was thinking about upgrading to a modix for aero parts and this really helped show how well it can work for large parts.
Many many thanks for this and the previous video showing the scanning process. Definitely following now. Thanks for sharing the knowledge and sharing your passions.
Thank you for mentioning this. I see alot of people in the comments who think they are going to drop $150 on a printer and just whip one of these out over a weekend.
Hi, i really enjoyed this video and how informative it was. But i have a question. Why not use the 3d printed bumper en finish smooth and paint over it ? Why is a mold needed ?
Very nice! I remember years ago I wanted to get into the automotive scene doing the same thing. Your video rekindled that fire that I have for automotive design and rapid prototyping!! I still redesign cars so why not bring them to life?!
dude i have a 2012 sti and iv gotten in to 3d printing and was wounding how it could be done to make my own printed design for my whip good to know what i would need to use to do it right
Hi there. What Wax or PVA did you use to have a so easy demould process? Seems very smooth to demould it. Or is it because or the multiple piece mould construction?
I have had a delta printer for a long time. I just ordered a scanner and new printer, 17" x 17" x 17". I'm working on a RGBW cluster and dash light conversion and dash re-layout that is begging for some scanning action. Hoping I don't need a new computer though.
You would make a lot of money if you 3d printed those extension rubber bumpers some of those old classic land yachts had. I forgot the the terminology to give you the proper name for them but I hear they're a nightmare & expensive to replace.
Question: would a 3d printed bumper be stronger than fiberglass and more flexible or is it just as brittle because I've been having a lot of problems when it comes to fiberglass bumper's because i usually hit speed bumps because my cars lowerd so i wanted to know it this would hold up better than fibreglass
first time watching a video of yours, your footage IRL seems to be quite well managed, but the switch to PC recording and your awful peaking microphone was horrendous
I am planning to create my own bumper, similar to yours I dont like my stock bumper and I cant seem to find one on the market since the car is a 2010 mazda.
Cool video, but i notice alot of repeatability in the editing, for example around 09:00 you explained 3 times in a row that you're taking the bumper to your partner bigduckclub, while 1 time would have been sufficient. Same thing happened in the intro, where the problem has been explained twice in a row.
Its 10 to 100x more expensive to take the 3d printed part, do a glass negative mold, then another glass mold, finish, paint etc. Wait till car folks figure out you can just add CF reenforcement to a 3d print, bondo, paint it, and there you go.
This is a good attempt to show the process, however, it is a tad crude. You already have 3D printers, CNC molds are just a slightly more rigid and precise machine away. Good for the hobbyist, but as a machinist, this is a tad cringy 😂 Look into Easy Composites.
Hey Big Duck Club...please please for the love of your health and your employees, as well as your clients', please figure out some dust containment, and fume mitigation. You want to live a long time making cool parts. It can be done on a budget.
idk how well you know of sn95 new edge mustangs but I've been trying to find someone that can print the rear quarter panels because they rust out, maybe you guys can take a look at something like that?
amazing video.....such a cool thing that we can now vision a change to our car and just make it happen instead of being at the merci of what ever the companies like. Too bad the color didn't match.
Don't be confused. This is not simple or cheap. That 3d scanner he used is $30k. Who knows how much having multiple designers submitting 3d model designs would cost...this is not something you could get on fiver. I have been working in CAD for 20 years, it is not simple. That 3d printer is $16k.... Then it is ran for days to print all the parts of that huge bumper. probably a couple hundred $ in filament alone. Then the time to assemble the 3d print, gluing it all together symmetrically while making sure it still fits the car correctly. Sanding and smoothing the print to get it ready for the mold making. Who knows how much it would cost to have a custom fiberglass mold made. Then the cost of painting it. Yes you can do all this yourself. But this is deep into the manufacturing world with tons of experience and expensive tools divided between all these trades. This is how a business would do it knowing that they would be selling multiple bumpers. For a first time DIY it is not happening, 100% fail at one or every single step in this process. Trust me I have done it many times. But if you want to get into this, keep trying, you will learn from those failures....or hopefully you have some deep pockets and can pay others to do it for you...and remain ignorant. I am actually in the process of 3d modeling my bumper in fusion 360, only needing to print the top portion 54"x9". Might be close to $1000 to have a professional company like Xometry print out of ASA. I had a $700 Creality CR10 S5 3d printer I bought 4 years ago, terrible at printing ABS / ASA. No you do not want a cheapo 3d printer like that to do this. It needs to be enclosed to print ABS so the large print does not cool at different temperatures and warp and pop off the bed. Cheap printers only work with PLA which is terrible for most car parts. PLA has a glass transition temperature of 130 degrees F. Being in the sun things get too hot and your print will turn into a floppy noodle. Or you can make a carbon fiber PLA carbon fiber sandwich like the guys who is 3d printing the Lamborghini is doing. A modern least expensive printer that could get ABS / ASA done is a Bambu Lab but it has a 10" cube build size. Xometry uses $150,000 Stratasys Fortus machines for FDM 3d printing that have a 24" x36" x36" build volume...at least that is the info I could find.
Cheap printers can print the same filaments for the most part as expensive printers. The main difference between cheap ones like the ender 3, and more expensive ones like bambulabs, is ease of use and speed. An ender 3 can print all of the same things and at the same quality a p1s can if you know what you're doing.
Just wow! If this stuff was accessible to everyone, the car scene would get 10x more cooler and varied. Love the final result!
That’s one of our long-term goals! Certain project files will be available to the public in the near future
Well everything is available, you just need toput the time and money for it.

Dude you can do this using your camera and a $150 3D printer. It may take some more measuring and elbow grease, but totally doable.
Really nice job, my best friend had 2 sti back in 2003 same colour, he loved that car, he sadly passed this year, he would have loved to see what you did here, amazing great work from both of you.

This is awesome. This opens up a whole new world of car customization.
My only nitpick, that's not a bumper, that's a front fascia. 😉
Great video guys! Super informative , I love that you brought us along for the entire process. Definitely would love to see more content like this in the future!!
Thank you! Would love to get more technical in the future too!
Thanks for showing the process! I love how additive manufacturing keeps growing! That bumper looks amazing!!!
Lol that 3D scanner is worth more than the whole car.
Very nice work. I just started playing with 3D printing on a very small scale with a Prusa MK3S+ desktop. This is such a a great technology and will keep older cars on the road. Not to mention the options for customization and imagination.
Great result. I appreciate the way you gave a brief on all the steps that went into it. New sub.
Very cool! My only feedback is that for the final reveal, the part we've all been waiting for, it's obscured by the channel logo and large thumbnails for video recommendations. May want to rethink that bit.
Thanks for the tips!
There is so much insane skill in this video! I love every step of this
Ohh! This might become interesting for a future project! * Pulls out $30.000 Artec Eva scanner * never mind!
you can do it with a 800 scanner xd
@@dlain200good luck with that
mmm, only 30 dollars? sign me up
Came out perfect, so interesting to watch the whole process including cad revisions all the way to printing and molding
Incredible! This needs more exposure
Bro this is exactly what i needed to see today. I need to speak with you directly about having this process done for me.
Amazing video. Love that it's all kept local in California to accomplish this.
Would love for this to be more accessible to the general market.
We plan on doing more motorsport stuff, so turnaround time is a MUST!
I feel itchy just watching him work with fiberglass. I sure don’t miss those days. 😂
Nice result.
14:03 That dust mask isn't gonna help with solvent fumes.
Did you have to make a fiberglass mold or could you use the abs plastic bumper that came out of the 3d printer as is?
bro just whipped out a 30k 3d scanner like he's a gangster. I love it! that's next level flex
Amazing work! But please do something about your desk mic, the volume peaks and the clipping hurt
Great breakdown, I was gonna do a process video for how I 3d print my parts but now I can just link people to this video :) Was thinking about upgrading to a modix for aero parts and this really helped show how well it can work for large parts.
LOL i love the backwards shirt when you pick up the painted bumper
20 minutes of making it and 2 sec of showing the result....
It has to be trim and fix. Than gel coated afterwards. Than sanded and primed and painted. Enjoy the process
Bro imagine...barely showed the finished product
Exactly! What a crock of 💩💩💩
Many many thanks for this and the previous video showing the scanning process. Definitely following now. Thanks for sharing the knowledge and sharing your passions.
Craftsmanship from start to finish. Great job all!
Awesome Bro!
That is one heck of a job man well done looks lovely!
That's a monster of a printer. I would have to do at least 12, probably more like 16 pieces.
Cool stuff
Thank you for mentioning this. I see alot of people in the comments who think they are going to drop $150 on a printer and just whip one of these out over a weekend.
This stuff is incredible. Can you do a 3-D print off fenders from a photograph?
Hi, i really enjoyed this video and how informative it was. But i have a question. Why not use the 3d printed bumper en finish smooth and paint over it ? Why is a mold needed ?
Very nice! I remember years ago I wanted to get into the automotive scene doing the same thing. Your video rekindled that fire that I have for automotive design and rapid prototyping!! I still redesign cars so why not bring them to life?!
This is so sick. I need this done to a EF9 front bumper even though it would probably cost way more than an oem bumper
Excellent video mate! Thanks for sharing.
dude i have a 2012 sti and iv gotten in to 3d printing and was wounding how it could be done to make my own printed design for my whip good to know what i would need to use to do it right
Awesome video! Just watched the whole thing 👍 sick to see it from start to finish
0:26 got your doug demuro impression on point
im curious about the IS300 at 8:55
Hi there. What Wax or PVA did you use to have a so easy demould process? Seems very smooth to demould it. Or is it because or the multiple piece mould construction?
thank you for making this! im so stealing this to make a vertex body kit for the s2000.
What scanner are you using and what would be the cost for entry?
I have had a delta printer for a long time. I just ordered a scanner and new printer, 17" x 17" x 17".
I'm working on a RGBW cluster and dash light conversion and dash re-layout that is begging for some scanning action. Hoping I don't need a new computer though.
Wow this dude really knows how to paint
I don't know what this channel is all about but this video got me to subcribe. Haha,
Nice thanks for sharing. Really liked the whole process
Could it have worked if you flip the intercooler 180 degrees so that the pipes are on top
usually headlights or rad support are in the way of pipes if you flip the intercooler
thanks for the video, wondering if the new bumper is a brand new design from scratch or based on the scan -> mesh-> edit the mesh from blender?
which 3d printer did you
use?
Looks sick!
Excluding cost of the 3d printed bumper and paint, how much did this run you
You would make a lot of money if you 3d printed those extension rubber bumpers some of those old classic land yachts had. I forgot the the terminology to give you the proper name for them but I hear they're a nightmare & expensive to replace.
Amazing job. Kudos.
Question: would a 3d printed bumper be stronger than fiberglass and more flexible or is it just as brittle because I've been having a lot of problems when it comes to fiberglass bumper's because i usually hit speed bumps because my cars lowerd so i wanted to know it this would hold up better than fibreglass
Could you give us a format version to do it ourselves that will be sweet 😋
How do you scale the 3d model after modelling for printing?
Awsome! What is the scanner and printer please?
Nicely done!
Dope build. Love the bumper. I need one of those scanner things.
Love the video
Also..
I feel like you been on Bob's Burgers before...idky
Please make a video how to model things on 3d scanned stuff.
Hi, why didn't you paint and install initial 3D-printed part itself?..
first time watching a video of yours, your footage IRL seems to be quite well managed, but the switch to PC recording and your awful peaking microphone was horrendous
Why make it fiberglass in the end ? Isn't plastic a lot more resistant ?
this is the exact stuff Im studying design for, definitely keen to see a video going over the printing stuff!
I am planning to create my own bumper, similar to yours I dont like my stock bumper and I cant seem to find one on the market since the car is a 2010 mazda.
Fantastic work! Please do more videos. Wish I could work with you guys, I love this stuff!
Cool video, but i notice alot of repeatability in the editing, for example around 09:00 you explained 3 times in a row that you're taking the bumper to your partner bigduckclub, while 1 time would have been sufficient.
Same thing happened in the intro, where the problem has been explained twice in a row.
I need a new bumper that's 3d printed
where can I buy one?
I been thinking about doing this, you already done it hell yeah! I'd have to do it in tiny segments though like 25cmx25cm patches
Can you 3d print some stuff off my 2g dsm eclipse if I send to you?
Even though the bumper looks darker, the car is still sick
What will this cost approximately? Is it cheaper then buying a bumper?
Its 10 to 100x more expensive to take the 3d printed part, do a glass negative mold, then another glass mold, finish, paint etc. Wait till car folks figure out you can just add CF reenforcement to a 3d print, bondo, paint it, and there you go.

This is a good attempt to show the process, however, it is a tad crude. You already have 3D printers, CNC molds are just a slightly more rigid and precise machine away. Good for the hobbyist, but as a machinist, this is a tad cringy 😂
Look into Easy Composites.
Do you take requests to scan and print parts?
Someone needs to do this with teh SE Lip kit for the S12 200sx chassis.
Hi. What program for knife do you use? Thank you
I crshed my widebody w208 and wish I could just print a new bumper and left fender flare 😢
Hey Big Duck Club...please please for the love of your health and your employees, as well as your clients', please figure out some dust containment, and fume mitigation. You want to live a long time making cool parts. It can be done on a budget.
What 3d printer was that?? I need to know.
idk how well you know of sn95 new edge mustangs but I've been trying to find someone that can print the rear quarter panels because they rust out, maybe you guys can take a look at something like that?
Out of curiosity, since I didn't hear you say it, How much did this bumper cost the way YOU did it? BTW the frickin break cooling is sick!
What’s the printer model used ? I couldn’t understand the name :/
what scanner did u use? i want to make bodykit for citroen c5 and tbh idk what to do first
amazing video.....such a cool thing that we can now vision a change to our car and just make it happen instead of being at the merci of what ever the companies like. Too bad the color didn't match.
wait how many MODIX printers do you have? 120X's?? or 180xs?
This is insane. Awesome
Hi great work .where can I purchase the 3d printer like the one you using
Did it warp in the Sun?
Nice work! How did this end up costing you at the end?
I was curious how much more expensive is this process than buying a new OEM bumper
Need to do classic jdm
Don't be confused. This is not simple or cheap. That 3d scanner he used is $30k.

Working with cad 20 years? Your profile suggests your about 23 years old 😂

what did you say at the start of the video?
Thank you very much for this vid. It's really helping me.
What printer did you use
Cool use of 3d printing. How thick is the wall you are printing?
Can you adjust a size and print a part for me?
I wanted to see the 3d printer you were using :/
Loved the video. Guy seems very quirky lol even had his shirt on backwards when he picked up painted bumper 😂
Holy shit. You're in San Jose! Would you be able to scan and mod my bumper for me? I've been wanting to do the same sort of thing to mine as well.
i cant imagine it's cheap at all. that process seemed insane
