Watched a car restoration programme this morning and they needed some specific plastic clips for an engine cover on a Williams Clio which were not available anymore. He borrowed one from the William car museum (his mate ran it luckily!) and approached a 3D printing company who produced some for £50. Strikes me that many components, trim etc. could be produced the same way - they can even 3D print in metal now! (there was a custom manifold for Williams)
A bit expensive yes, but thought it ,may help any members on here who are restoring a classic and all other avenues had closed
