MG4 (2022-2025)
I have created a functional 3D printed Front Trunk. This is the very first version and still has a lot of refinement to do to get it to something approaching acceptable.
Hope people find this interesting.
It cannot store a Type 2 Cable as the thickness of it cannot bend to fit the space available.
It does fit the normal home charger cable.
It was printed in PETG and took me about 1 week all up. While PETG has some temperature resistance above that of PLA, I will look to ABS/ASA for better temperature handling as ABS/ASA can go a high as 100 Deg C before deforming.
I have uploaded a video talking about it on youtube, but forgot to get the URL link just search for MG4 or Frunk.

Looks amazing.

Curious do you have a 1 Phase type 2?
I have both a 1 and 3 phase cables and the 1 phase is much more flexible than the 3.
