3D Printing - What colour plastic reel is close to tan?

GoldenBarge

Was looking at the 3D models for 240s available online.

Anyone got an opinion on these?

There's a 3D printer at work, a techie who is sympathetic and it seems a shame to waste it.

Obviously black is easy enough.

But has anyone tried to find a colour closest to tan interior? If so, where might I get the code or the plastic reel?

There are a few 1DIN 3 gauge surrounds - but didn't see one for a RHD.

Cheers GF

LHD stuff is easy to mirror for RHD. I did this for the Upper double din fascia for the 240.

Keep in mind the filament you use needs to withstand the high interior temps a car cabin can reach in summer.

Some brands silk gold comes pretty close in PLA

If it's a dual filament with single nozzle printer... mixing 87% yellow with 13% silk brown gets Dam close using ASA

AKA ASA or ABS

I have been after a '74 Dodge monaco for a while now to build into a Bluesmobile, I don't have a 3D printer, however I had a friend give it a go, pretty close in scale and look but very rough in the finish. He did a couple of 245's for me, this one being the pic of the bunch.
