I can’t speak for him, but I would contact this Shapeways seller and see if he’d be willing to drawn them up. I’ve purchased a few of his items in the past, and I’ve been pleased. There are other sellers on Shapeways that you could contact, too. I would look for ones that make 1/24 scale items for trucks. They often are willing to make items on request. I hope this helps. https://www.shapeways.com/shops/gmphnd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Force Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) The parts there are kind of expensive. Some examples, €40 wich is equvilant to $48 for a pair of side mirrors, €44 / $52.50 for a Peterbilt 379 Extended Hood, €75 / $90 for a Peterbilt Unibilt sleeper with no roof and €56 / $67 for the roof part so a total of €131 / $157 to get a complete one, €154 / $184 for a ICT 120 inch sleeper, allmost €10 / $11.50 for one Peterbilt front wheel and €20 / $24.25 for a Scania front wheel...all in 1:24th scale. The parts looks nice but I think I pass as most of the parts can be found a lot cheaper elsewhere. Edited March 13, 2021 by Force Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with Force on this way to much money for a small part ,I don't like Shapeways stuff it's to rough and sands terrible ,I was look for it to be made from liquid resin so it would be smooth .

Did you find out if he’s selling them separately, or only in the combo with the hood and photo etch? Might be hard to find out. Maybe ST Supply would sell them separately after they get the stuff from Russia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure that that Paul has broken up other sets before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
