Very cool. What are those made of? Were these printed in a 3-d printer or something?

yes I 3d printed them out of abs plastic then I put some spot putty on it to smooth out the surface. the 3d printer i used is a monoprice maker select v2 it's an amazing printer for the price.
ok here they are after painting I'll put them on my car tomorrow as it's cold and dark in toronto tonight first layer after the primer (i didn't take a pic of that)
black paint before wetsand and polish. after wax and polish.

Wow, if I saw them on teh car, I'd never say that they are self-made.
