Recently I decided to make my PGM carts all pretty pretty so I got some new labels and ordered a few shock boxes from Southtown knowing that I could cut down the interior plastic and make them fit PGM carts. I did that, which works but made the insides of the shock boxes look like exacto knife garbage so I decided to 3D print some inserts to make them look clean again. Here they are.

I made small one which just covers the top area that gets cut out and is a 2ish hour print. Totally functional and works just fine, but you can clearly see the added component.

Then I decided to go all in and make one that is a full interior replacement. Overnight+ print which looks great and works great as well.

I glued the prints onto the interior plastic of the shockboxes with clear Gorilla glue. Shockbox closes as it normally would with no obstruction or deformation. Crispy clean.

Enjoy.
 
And shout out to @Robertguy09 for the very nice PGM labels. If you need replacements, he does great work. Totally recommended.
 
Thanks @nam9

I don't know if twist was going to do it but as a solution, vacuum forming a piece would be awesome. I don't have a vacuum former myself but if someone has one and did a run I'm sure there'd be interest.
