Have just taken delivery of a set of 3D printed centre caps, anyone else had these from ebay 3dclever and what glue did you use to bond once sprayed?

Cant get much info from seller, he states made of resin when I asked him what filament he used, couldn't confirm if PET or PLA etc just said resin and didn't know what glue....

Anyone got any ideas?

Do they not just clip in?

I know this doesn't really help, but there's a guy in the Phase 1 Owners Group on Facebook who sells some 3D printed centre caps that are all one piece, it might be worth messaging him if the ones you have now don't work out. I've got a set and they're great quality.

Any epoxy will do. They are a resin, it doesn't fall under standard FDM

I've just printed a set of these as a test and oversized them slightly. Seem to grab better within the wheel centre. Might be worth if you get them again just asking fir a slight over size.

Good to know, what I have discovered is that a track day makes them melt, deform and fall out of the front wheels

is this with them being made out of PLA ?
My current ones are PLA+ as a test and then ill probably make them out of ASA as its alot more heat tolerant.
