🤍💙 Design Concept

The BMW Lightbox combines a clean automotive aesthetic with modern LED illumination.
The iconic circular BMW emblem creates a strong and recognizable visual impact when illuminated. 💡🚗

The design is intentionally kept simple and consists of only two printed parts: the Baseplate and the Light Panel.
This makes the model easy to print, assemble, and install while still delivering a sharp and professional look.

The system also supports interchangeable Light Panels,

allowing different designs or brand styles to be swapped without reprinting the Baseplate.

🎁 Purpose

This lightbox is perfect for automotive enthusiasts and works great in:

garages 🔧
workshops 🛠️
car detailing studios 🚗✨
gaming setups 🎮
home decoration areas 🏠

When mounted on a wall, it becomes a clean illuminated centerpiece with a strong automotive character.

🖨️ Printing Recommendations

For best results, print the parts using PLA or PETG filament.

Recommended settings:

Layer height
- 0.2 mm
Walls
- 3–4
Infill
- 10–15 %

Suggested colors:

Light Panel
white or translucent for better light diffusion

Baseplate
black to reduce light leakage

For optimal lighting results, use a Light Panel thickness of around 0.8–1.2 mm in illuminated areas.
Avoid very fine details and slightly increase line thickness to ensure a clean light output.

🔧 Assembly Instructions

Print the Baseplate and the Light Panel.
Install an LED strip inside the cavity of the Baseplate.
Secure the LED strip using double-sided tape or clips for even positioning.
Route the power cable through the cable opening.
Place the Light Panel onto the Baseplate to close the lightbox.

Once assembled, the lightbox can be mounted on a wall using screws, hooks, or adhesive mounting strips. 🧩🔑
