Here's one I found that seems like it might work OK. I don't know how to incorporate it but I'm sure that there's a way.

Cheers

I wish I had your skills with 3d printing! Those look fantastic!

I forgot to post the final in this thread. I posted the .stl with pics in the 3D printer area, but here's how the final looks on my car. I think it would pass for the original all the up to the Porsche Parade concours. If I ever get an original in my hands, I'll compare them side-by-side, but from pictures (and snooping around 944's around town), it would take a mother's eye to know these weren't from Germany. :)

I printed up an extra dozen today in case anyone here needs a pair. Flat black paint makes them look OEM...

Tom,
Those are fabulous and something that has been bugging on my 89 Turbo... A set of these on my freshly painted wiper arms will fix sort that irritant. Please advise how to purchase.

Hi guys, sorry I missed this. I have a different kind of resin in my printer right now so will take me a week or two to print more of these. Remind me in a few weeks if I don't circle back before then. :)
