Hello!
I had finally the opportunity to get the highly saught after 1970 passenger side A/C vent to be reproduced.
The parts have the right material properties, features and are dimensional accurate. Those also feature the correct part numbers, vendor codes, etc.
The parts are not 3D printed and offer a proper durability.
This production run is currently limited to 50 parts.
If you have any questions please let me know down below or send me a PM.
For the passenger side vent 340$ + shipping

 Glad to see these being offered as a quality reproduction...Judging by the vent's spectacular chrome finish you'll have to offer a whole set for the match...lol...I've bought a few printed parts lately and although they appear somewhat accurate the plastic seems way too soft for the long run...Great Job !!

Very nice, are they injection molded, or 3D printed?

Thank you very much! :)
I already have finished the design of the center vent and all the files that are needed are ready to go. But I have to sell a minimum number of passenger side vents before starting the next project because it's quite an investment.

Neither... :D
They're vacuum casted (Please note that they aren't vacuum formed which is the process most hobbyists fear when it comes to parts like door panels.).
In this process special resin (which replicates the characteristics of popular plastics) gets casted into molds made out of silicon under vacuum.
This technique is used to make prototypes and small batches.
For injection molding I would have needed to make about 3-5 times as many parts to have the same price per piece.
