  1. Body panels - are pre-production units 3d printed

    Body panels are probably vacuum or pressure formed. Not particularly complex so the tooling is relatively cheap. Less than $5K each panel style.

    That's one of my intentions. Back when I worked with the engineers from A/D/S on a side project we had a OEM design that worked incredibly well but was impossible to vacuum form or injection mold because of the complex shape.
