Windshield Cowl Seal Repair

Cut off the remains of the rubber part on your windshield cowl and attach these printed ones. OEM PART: 51718208483 Mirror the end part to use it on the other side. Print multiple mid parts to cover the entire length. Printed from Fillamentum Flexfill 89A. Using 0.15mm layer height is important as there is a steep overhang on the part, which wouldn't print well using thicker layers. The end part might not fit perfectly but it did the job already so I didn't tweak it anymore. Use heat-, UV- and fluid-resistant material and verify full wiper or washer clearance.
