Nissan Patrol GU Cup Holder Insert
The Nissan Patrol GU is a car worth keeping right, and a broken cup holder insert shouldn't be the thing that lets the interior down. With your sample on the bench this is a realistic reproduction job.

The Nissan Patrol GU is a car worth keeping right, and a broken cup holder insert shouldn't be the thing that lets the interior down. 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
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 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.
