nc_beagle Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 My project car is missing the wiper fluid cap. It will be a while before it's even drivable but I wonder if these caps are relatively universal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 Not sure about other Mitsubishi models. The factory one has long been discontinued MB337860. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tux Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 Could 3d print one. Should be easy to design as it's kind of really just a circle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techboy Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 I can probably make one pretty easy. Although I am in the middle of 2 projects for BKB94 right now. Let me take a peek at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you 3D print wiper cowls too? 😁 They seem ok now, but apparently are prone to breaking. I don't think anyone can 3D print wiper cowls. You would have to have a machine with a really large base plate. Most of the largest 3D printers I've seen are 18" beds. I have 5 machines at my disposal, and I think the largest bed is 12 inches wide. Wiper cowls need to be injection molded by a plastics company. Tux is right ... Motocam and MKS both have them. If you need them, I'd jump on them b/c you never know how many they have left and that's usually and item that needs to be batch ordered.

nc_beagle Posted February 9 Author Report Share Posted February 9 Thanks all. On the wiper cowls, any thoughts on how to visually restore them? Meaning they've faded a bit. Is it better to try to repaint them (removing them first) or use one of the many plastic restore products? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKB94 Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 SEM bumper black. It has the adhesion promoters in it that are needed for plastic parts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techboy Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 I repainted mine with Dupicolor black trim and bumper cover paint. I've used it a bunch of times on various things and it's always worked pretty well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
