3D model description

This is intended as a humorous Car Emblem celebrating the Infinite Improbability Drive from The Hitch-Hikers Guide To The Galaxy by Douglas Adams.
It is similar to one I used to have years ago but could not source again.
The photo is of the back of my current car (yes, I know, I should have washed it first, but hey!)

There are two files:
One is the Logo itself.
The other is a Mask that you can use over your printed Logo to protect parts of it if you decide to spray-paint the raised surfaces.

I did this using some Bostik Fast Tak spray glue on the back of the mask pieces to secure against paint seepage.

I used multiple thin coats of the shiniest Chrome spray paint I could find.

To secure it to the car I used some "PE Foam Double-Sided Adhesive Tape" (courtesy of Amazon) carefully trimmed with a very sharp knife.

3D printing settings

I printed in Flexible Black TPU but if you intend using it on a flattish surface PLA will probably be OK
