I recently viewed a YT video ,a guy makes exact copies of iconic vintage sports cars bodys in half scale , Most 3d printed in plastic ,but one was printed in aluminum, having trouble finding it again .but here's another video of it

Nope it was all hand formed , I missed that part , was wondering how you'd 3d print it, that looks like 311 frt.bumper

They are pretty lite anyway , and the stock one provides strength in a crash

There is someone selling new fiberglass Datsun Roadster parts on Yahoo Japan Auctions. So far I have seen fenders, hoods and trunks. Looks like it is about $250. Here is the link. Hope it helps. https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/au ... 1100844787
