Holden Barina Gear Shifter Surround
We see a steady stream of Holden Barina owners chasing this exact part — the gear shifter surround is a known weak point once the plastic has a decade of heat cycles in it. Variants differ between years and models, so we'll need your part (broken is fine) to match the exact one.

Why these break
Console surround cracks at the clip points. UV exposure breaks down the polymer chains in the original material. By the time the surface looks chalky or faded, the strength underneath is already gone.
How we reproduce them
We model these in CAD from your sample, print a test-fit first, then run the final part once the fit is confirmed. Expect a few days end to end.
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.
