Scanned
We 3D-scan your original part, even if it’s broken or in pieces, to capture its exact shape and fixing points.

Obsolete isn’t the end.
We recreate vehicle parts that are no longer made. If you still have the original, even in pieces, we can usually make you a new one.
Small parts, big annoyances
A cracked clip, a broken bracket or a worn trim piece won’t stop you driving, but you notice it every time you get in. When the part went out of production decades ago, it can feel like there’s no fix.
MindParadox recreates those parts with a modern digital workflow: 3D scanning, computer-aided design (CAD) and high-quality 3D printing.
We’re a small workshop near Cambridge, run by Justin, and we work with owners all over the UK by post.
Scanned. Redesigned. Remade.
Redesigned
We rebuild it as a clean model in professional CAD, designing out the damage and adding strength where the original was weak.
Remade
We print it in an engineering plastic chosen for the job, check the fit, and send it to you ready to use.

Fitting a Land Rover indicator to a custom-build Gasser
A custom car shop wanted an original Land Rover indicator and switch on a 2-inch steering column. Their sizing set the design direction, and 3D scans of the originals made it fit first time.
