Why would you use CAD/printing to do a prototype bumper design? Sure it helps for visualization but, clay sculpting is still much more used even in oem production given the cheaper cost and potentially less error labor (since you sclupting over the body you'll have less chance of having something not line-up/work/fit.)

Potential Solution
Quote:
I work as an engineer, one of my responsibilities / areas of expertise is reverse engineering with 3D scan data. We use light based laser scanners to pickup 3D data (with up to 0.002" accuracy). We use a suite of software that enable the world of scan data and CAD to merge- where you can create a parametric file based on a scan. Needless to say, I take one home basically every weekend. I've had a lot of ideas for my BRZ and bike but I haven't had the time or artistic aptitude to CAD something like this. I can't offer this for free but I can tell you that it's possible and likely under 3k if you take the bumper off yourself and don't require a fully reverse engineered part (the final part would be a STEP, not a surfaced parametric file). lmk if you want any more info on this, awesome design work so far! |

I don't know. His username screams Bot/Spammer but he has some details in his post that are almost relevant.

It is pretty neat... especially since Aim Gain just put out this bumper a few months back using the GR Supra reverse/brake light. |
