The Raptor grill seemed like a great empty canvas.

3d printed magnetic "chicklets". Each chicklet can be removed and swapped with a different color.

Still a work in progress...

I can just imagine the possibilities. Once you perfect it, will you be selling?

I'm curious. I thought our bodies were all aluminum. If the magnets hold, there must be steel behind it.

I thought about it, but frankly I would need to get like $200 for it. There is around 200 openings, on top of that is how much and many of different colors, around 10 different sizes or shapes. After that each chicklet needs two magnets pressed in....

Its been a process!

Maybe I'll just put the cad files up for a nominal fee and folks can do as they like.

Magnets will need to be glued in each opening for these to stick to.
