Kia Cerato Boot Trim Clip

Why these break
Boot and tailgate trim clips crack with age. 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
This is a quick job on our end — we take dimensions from your old part, adjust for print tolerances, and run a small batch so you have spares for next time.
We print these in ASA. ASA is the UV-stable cousin of ABS — it holds its colour and strength through years of Australian sun where the original plastic went chalky and brittle.
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.
