Frequently asked questions
What kind of projects have you solved?
Real scanning, reverse engineering, design and manufacturing jobs: a replicated or modified mirror housing, parts for a motorsport project, a hinged carbon-fibre roof trim for a campervan and a made-to-measure roof rack for a Porsche Cayman.
Are the projects you show real?
Yes: they are real jobs. When a part isn't fitted yet we show the design render and say so next to the images; we don't use generic or stock photos.
Can I buy the parts shown in Projects?
We also develop our own projects as bespoke parts. Tell us which part you need to scan, replicate, design or manufacture and we'll tell you how we'd approach it.
