3D printing rear bumper TPI badge
A friend of mine at the local University is taking a CAD class and was looking for something to create for a project that will eventually be printed on the campus' 3D printer.
So in the spirit of killing 2 birds with one stone I talked him into recreating my rear bumper emblem "5.7 Tuned port injection" since mine has long since turned to dust. I know they sell recreations but nothing beats a good grade and $free.99
I need the dimensions off the original if anyone has it, more or less the overall rectangle, I have one or two of the letters left for font and sizing for that.
