Devious Diesel - A Test Run

Just wondering if anyone has come across a more realistic 3D printed replacement grille for the diesel.
I am just about to receive miine thanks to a really good deal with Amazon and will be converting it to battery R/C very soon.

As (I think?) you can get them without the face I would imagine a spare part should be available from Bachmann.

I'll bet somebody has 3D printed one - in fact someone on this forum 3D printed two models of the entire loco :nod::nod:
 
Dumb question #1 of the day - wouldn’t that count as a copyright infringement?
In the UK (not sure about ROW) can copyright a registered trade name but not a shape. If you were to copy the actual molding then you would only have to make minor alterations, say motor block mounts, to be in the clear. Max

Yebbut, sorry, I didn't mean that they'd 3D printed Devious, they'd done an 09 (or 08 )
 
I am thinking of adding the side doors/hatches to give DD a bit more personality. I'll leave the face, though: Me public demands it.
