These are designed to replace the stock grille with no modification necessary.

For those with access to a 3D Printer, the file is available to download from the product download page as well as from Cults3D. (More Digital Download files will be coming soon.)

The digital files are available for the 2 more popular styles separate, or you can get all 5 options in a bundle.
There are also files made for those with Bambu Lab printers to be able to load the file and print without messing with any settings.

For those without access to a 3D Printer, you can purchase printed versions, available in a variety of material options, from the product page here.

New "Easy Removal Support":

One new feature for the Digital Download version is the inclusion of an "Easy Removal Support" built in to the file. This is intended to make it extremely easy to remove the supports after you are done printing the grille shell.

Check out the video for an example of how easy it is to remove the built in supports:
