Hello Guys,

Thing went really slow because my personal life turns lately. But I never stopped worked on this , even 30 min per day.

Now CAD file is completely ready. I started the new specs for the new CALI. The nowdays will be called :

CALIBRA MANGUSTA

Here you have the taillights of it- first render

I hope to have the inner part ready PRINTED untill European Calibra Days- I will be there this year !
Website with CALIBRA Mangusta Specs will be available by then, and also a demo video with these taillights features.
ONE of them Is ABS on/off, which is really nice for glossy ice when simply ABS is nothing than pain in the ***.

Question to all of you, please respond :

Would you like to pull the border part of the glass more outside the shell of the car?

Like in the Porsche concept taillight? This may hustle a litle bit the top view rear line of the car

They look pretty cool, would be interesting to see them on the car even if photo-shopped. Personally though, I would like them to be flush, similar to the original ones.

I hope there will be be like tens, maybe hundreds who will have it on the cars!!. Now, just about 4 people including me from the people who still drive a Calibra expressed their will.
Let's spread the news !!!
Thank you Cliff for reply !

Hei guys ,

While printing is ridiculously going slow, let me share some of the developing pics. and why not, some Wrap fails of print

And optical

And here you have the 3rd failed print..ABS is way problematic than PLA- first proto, so I need to spend much more time on this.

Unfortunately I can't reach to ECD this year, and the print fail is one of the reasons, but not the main.
You can see where the LEDs hole must have been printed, chips of sustaining walls fell off
