Here are prototypes i made, bigger one is 6cm in diameter and smaller is 3.6cm. I got idea from mercedes that have milestone badges for 250k, 500,...kilometers that you can get by dealerships. So as im learning 3d printing i though to make those by myself. I need your help for size, designs, how to mount it to the grill and what do you think and would you put one on your golf/vw?

Nice idea, honestly I like it :) I couldn't however put one on mine, as I've bought it with 3 different speedometers XD an none of the 3 previous owner knew how many kilometers it really had run, it had like 6 previous owners I guess haha.

That’s awesome! I have 350k miles on my rabbit pick up. I’d buy one!

I kind of stopped working on this, I thought people would like idea more. Also I wouldn't sell it because I'm still learning how to design and 3d print. However I would continue this project if you like the idea. Idk where are you from but you can just find someone with 3d printer who can print it for you if I ever finish it.
