I can help with that. At least with vinyl cut sticker type decals

Hmmm... $306 plus $75 shipping plus unspecified "import fees" which could be who knows what. I looked up "sold" of this kit and found 3. They vary in price from the same seller. I checked feedback and didn't see any negative relating to this model. Apparently, you buy the kit, then they print one for you. So there is an unspecified waiting period. I wonder if the parts are cleaned up like the photos show or if they have to be cut away from the molding process? That interior looks nice! 3D printing has come a long way.

3D printing is like a first generation Star Trek replicator. :)

It has come a long way and the future is very bright as the technology gets better and prices come down. For now, prices are still to high for me to justify but some day..
