Nissan Silvia S13–S15 Cup Holder Insert

Wreckers are drying up for the Nissan Silvia S13–S15, and when they do have one, its cup holder insert is usually just as brittle as yours. Printing a fresh one solves that. With your sample on the bench this is a realistic reproduction job.

Wreckers are drying up for the Nissan Silvia S13–S15, and when they do have one, its cup holder insert is usually just as brittle as yours. Printing a fresh one solves that. With your sample on the bench this is a realistic reproduction job.

Why these break

Divider flaps and spring arms snap off. The factory part is made from styrene-based plastic that loses its plasticisers over the years. It gets glassy, then one warm day it lets go under a load it used to handle easily.

How we reproduce them

Bring in the broken part and we'll reverse engineer it — usually with a design tweak that addresses why it failed in the first place, not just a copy of the weak original.

We print these in PETG. PETG has a little give in it, so it snaps into place like the original and shrugs off the knocks that shattered the old part.

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.
