    I would love to add this to my car. On my printer using PLA it estimates over 2 days of printing in the current orientation. Is it possible to provide a model that doesn't have the extra supports added? I'd like to print in a different orientation to see if it shortens that time and filament amount.

    I dont think there is faster than what I oriented. The file I shared on Makerworld, you can delete "cube" objects and leave actual object alone. That would save you just a little bir of time but, if you rotate the object and slice, you will see that it takes more time because it created new supports. Also if you change the oriantation of the object, you will see layer lines visible and it wont look good when the print is done.

    If you really speed up, you need to cut the object half and print 2 pieces. But I have not tried this.

    For me, it takes 13 hour to print. Even if I wanted to print pla, I could not make it less than 13 hour.
