ND Miata Canards (dive plane)

This model I designed in Solidworks was based on the Verus Engineering Canards (Dive planes) for the ND (4th gen) Mazda Miata.

Printed in Bambu ABS for the final version with some acetone vapor smoothing done to it as well. I modeled some screw holes into this for mounting to the car. The holes fit Stainless Steel Hex-Drive Flat Head Screw, M4 x 0.7 mm Thread Size, 12 mm Long screws with matching washers and nylon lock nuts on the inside of the bumper.
