Custom DIY 3D Printed Center Caps for Alloy rims (Toyota Logo on VW Rims)

This video covers what goes into making your own custom 3D printed center caps for alloy rims. The rims I recently purchased are from a 2003 Volkswagen Jetta, and fit my 2004 Toyota Corolla (with a few adjustments), but did not come with center caps, plus I wanted my center caps to have a matching Toyota logo. I go through the theory, design, and production of the center caps, which were made using standard PLA filament and spray paint for the finish.
I might make a future video going into detail on what specifications need to be considered when finding compatible rims for a car, but for this video I just focus on the center caps. Leave a comment on how you think they turned out and thanks for watching!

Nice! I like the peg design where they have to be melted together. What filament did you use?

Thanks for the reply! For this project I used “Ender” brand PLA from creality3dofficial, the website I got my printer from. However, any name brand PLA should work equally well. I recently switched to using eSun PLA and I like it as well.
I have not used PETG filament yet, but it may be a better choice for greater flexibility of the attachment tabs and higher temperature resistance. The center caps I made have been fine though on the car parked outside the last few months, no issue.
