Quick update on these:

We're launching two new colors today! Perfect Pink & Galaxy Black!

Rivian R1T R1S NEW - OpenSourceEV Parts Rangefinder Key Fob Surround in 9 Colors & 2 Finishes 20231207_190944


Perfect Pink is a vibrant, slightly darker Pink color described by my wife as right at home on Barbie.

Galaxy Black is a deep, dark black with permanent sparkles embedded like stars in the night sky. It's the Oppenheimer of the duo and is what I currently have installed on my Key Fob.

Each are priced at $8.95 and are shipping now.


Additionally, I noticed that a bunch of folks were order a two or more of these in a clip, so I made a special discount for that. If you enter code DUO during checkout, the second one will have a $3.95 discount applied.

That means you can get both colors of Barbenheimer for $13.95.

I've been using my carbon fiber infused Black for a couple weeks now and it works and looks great! I didn't have any issues with the carabiner (yet), but I appreciate the smaller size when I keep my keys in my pocket.

Finally got my T back and could change my fob to the Dollar Tree blink-blink :)
Great product!

What was your process to fill in the keys white? I’m looking to order same white key fob and really like your solution of filling in color.
I painted it using the paint from a white sharpie and a toothpick to apply it. I used an exacto knife to remove any excess.

I don't carry my fob regularly but I can't stop picking this up and feeling the weight. I think it's the same feeling as the new titanium iPhone where the % reduction is not representative of the real world feel due to the mass being around the perimeter.

Also I acetone smoothed it and while I left it a little too long (double) in there it is nice and shiny with the Dollar Green sparkles locked in better.

Love it - to my eye, this is how the fob should have been. Agree with the others - oddly light which makes it a pleasant surprise. Thanks!

That looks great! Addresses the aesthetic concern I have with most 3D printed parts.

I absolutely love this. I'm going to give acetone smoothing a try on the new Galaxy Black color. That should really pop.

After 15 min it hid most of the print lines but not all. I intended to leave it in for another 5 then got distracted for ~30 min. a bit bubbly around the key loop but I'm happy it didn't completely melt away on me. I left it to harden for over a day before trying to install afterwards. First time attempting that process, real classy set up using a butter dish and some tin foil and paper towels.
