Remixed from Tesla Model 3/S/X Wheel Center Cap by justingray

I wanted to print the logo in a separate color than the rest of the cap, so I created an insert that fits int the Tesla Logo. I also wanted to have the option to use any logo so I created a blank version as well for others to easily customize.

I also had trouble printing it with supports so I split the mount and logo plate into two separate prints which allows me to print them without support

In the first two photos I have two caps. They both are the same, fully assembled models. The one on the right however has been smoothed with acetone vapor. I think this gives it a nice polished look.

The last two are after all 4 were printed, assembled, and smoothed

UPDATE: I changed the file a bit to give the plate a more "mushroom cap design" This looks nicer once printed and can be glued together a lot cleaner.

Files:

1.Tesla Full.stl - This is the same as the original design just with a slightly different logo impression
3.V2 Insert.stl - This the Logo that can be inserted into the other files.Updated to make slightly thinner so it doesn't stick out.
5.Blank.stl - This is the original design but without any logo so you can add any logo you want
7.V2 Mount.stl - This is the first piece if you need to print in two parts. Print this and either of the plates below. I also left a hole in this design like the original to use for testing.Updated to work with new caps
9.V2 Cap Tesla.stl - Attached this to theMount.stl for a completed part. theTesla Insert.stl fits inside this model as wellUpdated to new mushroom cap design
11.V2 Cap Blank Plate.stl - Customize with your own logo and attach toMount.stl for a completed partUpdated to new mushroom cap design
