I'll make one for you when I get back home tomorrow. It may not fit quite right however. It's very hard to measure the contours on the bumper to be extremely accurate. Thatbwas part of the reason for breaking it up the way I did. When I get a chance I'll scan the whole thing and tighten it all up.
That was what I found lining these up, a tiny degree off at one end radically changed the alignment.
Thinking of doing that with a flexible print over 44" takes me back to the days of pinstriping... o_O

Inland is indeed a generally good manufacturer. This is the filament I used and have had extremely good results. It doesn't come out shiny but rather with a satin finish. It's rigid enough print quickly but has enough flex as an end product to have great utility and durability. I really like it for MTB fenders especially.

Awesome! and with Prime. 😁

Besides being unable to print that large, there's no way in hell I'd try to apply the whole thing in one go, haha! I used to work at a sign shop and did vehicle graphics (cut vinyl, not wraps), so I've had more than enough of that sort of business. 😖

No, I'd just like to experiment with segmenting it in different ways to fit in my printer.

Ok here are the .stl files! I still need to make some spacers for application though. Again, please do not monetize these files in any way - personal use only.

If anyone wants me to print some for them DM me.

Happy printing!
Thanks for sharing! I printed this in ABS-GF and was able to hit it with a heat gun and make it fit really nicely.

LOL, I just tried (vaguely succeeded) in using the 'Cut' function in Creality Print.
Cut my teeth on the old AutoCad text/lisp commands back in the early 80s, hate when I can't drag a trackball or mouse to exactly a point or angle the I want (89.3, 90.5, 90.1 is not the same as 90!)
I am always looking for an input field to do precise text input to override the close-enougn mouse (where is the snap to setting?)

I have an old Win 95 laptop (Hitachi Traveller-Pentium [tiny screen]) that has Autocad '98 (perpetual license, pre paywall) that I still go to at times, I can still fly doing architectural plans/elevations, but I do miss my HP Pen Plotter and Digitizer. My pc work area looked a bit like this, but I had an IBM 3270 AT/GX workstation 😁

Hello folks. Thank you for all the positive attention this print has gotten! As promised, here is a version for smaller printers where the original four pieces are split for a total of 8 pieces. Let me know how this works for you.

I can now fit the entire build on a single plate! 😁
