The Holden Commodore VF is a vehicle worth keeping right, and a broken air vent blade repair shouldn't be the thing that lets it down. With your sample on the bench this is a realistic reproduction job.
Why these break
Vent blades snap off their pivots and rattle in the dash. The original was moulded thin to save cents at production volume. That was fine when the plastic was fresh — twenty years on, there's no margin left in it.
How we reproduce them
Complex geometry means we treat this as a small engineering project — scan, model, test print, refine. We'll quote before any work starts so there are no surprises.
We print these in ABS. ABS matches the look and feel of the factory plastic, takes a sanded or textured finish well, and handles cabin temperatures without complaint.
Many plastic parts can be recreated, repaired, redesigned, or printed, depending on size, load, heat, material, and available samples. Bring in the damaged part or upload photos for assessment and we'll give you a straight answer before any work starts.
