Choose the needed variant and slice it; source file size is not printable volume.
Use the slicer's filament total; STL/3MF byte size is not a cost input.
Slice with the recommended material, infill, orientation, and supports.

BMW I3 Parcel Shel Buffer
Shared by
3DPrintedCarPartDescription
Parcel shelf buffer to replace BMW part 51466967605. I designed and trialed this on a BMW I3 but i believe it is also used on a variety other models. It is optimised for a flexible filament with a Shore hardness of about 85A/40D. It requires no support but needs a tab to be cut out after printing. The main advantage over the original is that you can print it in whatever funky colour TPU you happen to have. The design for the clip is available elsewhere on thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4737155 I believe it will fit the following models 1′ E81 (02/2006 — 12/2011) 1′ E87 (02/2003 — 02/2007) 1′ E87 LCI (01/2006 — 06/2011) 1′ F20 (07/2010 — 02/2015) 1′ F20 LCI (05/2014 — 06/2019) 1′ F21 (07/2010 — 02/2015) 1′ F21 LCI (05/2014 — 06/2019) 2′ F45 Active Tourer (11/2013 — 04/2018) 2′ F45 Active Tourer LCI (04/2017 — 12/2019) i3 I01 (01/2013 — 10/2017) i3 I01 LCI (01/2017 — 12/2019) X1 E84 (09/2008 — 12/2015).
