This is a replacement Strut Mount Seal and was made to replace the OEM seal on a 2008 Infiniti G35x (part number 55338-EG00A), but may fit other Infiniti/Nissan models as well. It MUST be printed in a really tough material, like TPU for resistance to oil, grease and abrasion (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic_polyurethane). Use at your own risk.
This should cost you less than $0.15 per seal in material and about 30 minutes to print using TPU compared to the $60+ per seal for the OEM replacment. I used Priline TPU (Shore hardness 98A) which I've had really good results using (https://amzn.to/2HqkFK0).
The OEM seal is 0.4mm thick, this version is 0.6mm thick so when printing at 0.2mm layers you'll get 3 layers. Scale up on the Z axis if you prefer a thicker seal, but make sure to have enough bottom/top layers to create a solid print.
Note that pictured seal (test fit version) is slightly different from finalized .STL
Use TPU (or such) @ 0.2mm layers. I'd suggest printing TPU on blue tape on a cold bed and (generally) at a 1.2 (yes, 1.2) flow rate. I've NEVER had a lift using Priline TPU using that configuration. NEVER print a flex filament directly on a PEI build surface, you'll have a bear of a time removing the print!
