Automotive Division

Custom Parts for Cars That Demand More

Brackets, mounts, bezels, clips, and discontinued part replacements — manufactured in heat-resistant, impact-tough materials built for the engine bay, the interior, and everything in between. Based in Cape Coral, FL.

Why Automotive Is Different

Under the Hood Is No Place for Cheap Plastic

Automotive parts face heat, vibration, chemicals, and UV exposure simultaneously. We use engineering-grade materials selected specifically for the demands of vehicle applications.

Underhood Heat

Engine bays regularly exceed 120°C near exhaust manifolds. Our carbon fiber nylon and PPS materials maintain structural integrity at temperatures that melt standard 3D printing plastics.

Vibration & Fatigue

Vehicles vibrate constantly. Glass-filled and carbon fiber reinforced materials resist fatigue cracking where standard plastics would fail within months.

Chemical Exposure

Oil, fuel, brake fluid, coolant — automotive parts live in a chemical environment. Our engineering-grade materials resist the solvents and fluids found under every hood.

UV & Weather

Exterior parts face the same Florida sun that destroys marine hardware. ASA delivers the UV stability needed for badges, light brackets, and exterior trim that won't fade or crack.

Automotive Materials

Materials That Handle the Heat

We match the material to the application. Engine bay parts get high-temp carbon fiber nylon. Exterior trim gets UV-stable ASA. Interior pieces get PETG. Every part gets the right material.

Who We Work With

Built for People Who Build Things

Car Enthusiasts & Builders

Custom gauge pods, one-off brackets, restoration parts for classics — if you can't find it in a catalog, we can build it. Bring us a sketch, a broken piece, or just an idea.

Auto Mechanics & Shops

Stop waiting on backordered clips and brackets. We reproduce discontinued parts and custom-fit solutions for the vehicles your customers bring in. Volume pricing available.

Fleet Managers

Keep your fleet running without waiting on dealer parts. We manufacture replacement brackets, mounts, and clips for commercial vehicles at a fraction of OEM cost.

Restoration & Custom Shops

Classic car parts that haven't been made in decades. We 3D scan the original (or what's left of it) and reproduce it in materials that outlast the original.

Reverse Engineering

Can't Find the Part? We'll Scan It.

Bring us the broken piece — or even just a photo and measurements. Our 3D scanning captures exact geometry at ±0.05mm accuracy, and we convert it to a production-ready CAD file. From there, we print the replacement in the right material for the application.

  • Discontinued parts reproduced from the original
  • Custom modifications to improve on the OEM design
  • Digital archive of scanned parts for future reorders
  • STL, STEP, and OBJ file delivery included

Need a Part Built?

Send us a photo, a part number, or the broken piece itself. We'll tell you if we can reproduce it, what material we'd recommend, and how fast we can get it to you. No obligation.
