Description

Mounts to hang the sides of front and rear bumpers on e46 driftcars etc. that lacks the bumper side piece for the stock ones. (mine got damaged, but i suspect some aftermarket ones never have them)
Bolts to the stock location on the car.
Made on a e46 m3 chassis but rear mounts have been tested on regular body as well, and i see no reason the front's won't work.
These require drilling the bumper to put a zip tie through it, and fitment is never perfect (pretty much up to how well you line up the holes for the zip ties) but more than fine for a driftcar.
I have used both PLA and PETG and they have held up to the bumper getting ripped off a few times, but they are not invincible so would print spares, but ziptie usually breaks first.
(last two picks are of my car using the mounts)

Added the .SLDPRT if anyone wants to tweak or refine them further.

Thats awesome! Have you ever tried using like the push button quick releases instead of zip ties?

No i haven't. My long term plan is to create a replacement bumper piece for the stock one so i can use the stock slide on supports, but when or if that will happen i don't know.
