The Nissan Skyline R31–R34 is a vehicle worth keeping right, and a broken headlight tab repair shouldn't be the thing that lets it down. With your sample on the bench this is a realistic reproduction job.
Why these break
Headlight mounting tabs snap in minor bumps. Vibration fatigue does the damage: thousands of small flexes add up to a crack at the stress point, usually right where the part clips or pivots.
How we reproduce them
Complex geometry means we treat this as a small engineering project — scan, model, test print, refine. We'll quote before any work starts so there are no surprises.
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.
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.
