Up and Running!

Welcome to the SLO Subies store. We will offer customized 3D-printed items for your Subaru, starting with the SLO badges for the grille and rear, including universal mounting hardware. We love our Subarus, but not all of us are committed to the turbo life that the STi offers. But that doesn't mean our SLOw Subies can't look just as cool.

I started 3d printing in June 2022, after telling my wife I wanted a 3d printer for a combination Father's Day and birthday present. I did some research and settled on a Creality Ender 3V2, purchased from a local MicroCenter store. YouTube videos helped me assemble the printer and adjust the settings, and it was printing quite well right out of the box. I was able to transfer an old .stl file for the SLO logo I had used with my vinyl cutter for making decals, and was printing SLO badges within a week.

Months of research and experimentation has led to a quality product at a very reasonable price. This is a home-based endeavor, and really just a hobby that pays for itself by sharing some of the things I like to make. I'm currently utilizing TinkerCAD, a web-based design application, for designing logos and items, and PrusaSlicer for turning those designs into GCODE for 3d printing.

We can do custom color combinations on the SLO badges and other custom items. Some color combos and custom work might take some time, as this is a home-based business currently working off of just one 3D printer. Designing a custom item takes time and experimentation to get it perfect, and we might not have the specific colors in stock. Usually, getting new colors in stock only takes a few days, but please allow a few days of lead time on any orders.

If you have any questions or are interested in custom-made items, please use the Contact Us section and send us a message. Thanks for visiting!
