3D model description

This is a license plate holder based on the aesthetics of Macross / Robotech. Specifically using the same tail number as the Valkyrie / Veritech flown by Milia Fallnya / Miriya Sterling. As such, I recommend printing it in red. It's designed for US (specifically California) plates, which measured to 308mm x 154mm

If you want to go with Max's, switch all the Red parts to blue. If you want to go with Hikaru/Rick VF-1J, replace the Right / Left Red with white, the Right / Left White to red (but that messes up the circle things) and the Center White to red and Center Red to white. Skull Leader, would be like the Hikaru, but change the Center White to black and Center Red to yellow.

I originally designed this thicker, and to use 6mm m3 screws to hold it together, but it was too thick for my car, so I brought it down to 6mm thickness. This means the m3 screw holes can't really be used, except to hold the pieces together while superglue sets.

I also included optional Bottom Spikes to line up with the holes on the bottom of the license plate, which helps set it with my car, which has the corresponding holes in the bumper.

The files are uploaded face down, and should be printed that way. Drag in all the Right parts together to keep registration for MMU printing (at least in Prusa Slicer). Do the same for all the Left parts, and all the Center parts. Throw in the tabs you'll use in there too. You'll have to print them in two separate files.
