We keep getting asked about this one — the blind end cap is one of those Avan parts that fails long before the rest of the unit is done. We've made this style of part before and can usually print yours without drama.

Why these break

Roller blind end caps crack and the blind drops. Vibration fatigue does the damage: thousands of kilometres of small flexes add up to a crack at the stress point, usually right where the part clips or pivots.

How we reproduce them

The process is simple: drop the part in or send clear photos with a ruler in frame, we confirm fit details, and print replacements — often with a little extra material where the original always cracked.

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.

As with everything in our library: whether a part can be reproduced depends on size, load, heat, material, and having a decent sample to work from. Send photos first — the assessment costs you nothing, and we'll tell you honestly if a genuine spare is the better option.
