I wanted to make the license plate screw caps match the color of my car.  Can be used for any suitable application to hide/beautify screws where ever they are.

Print in PETG or ABS (will work in PLA, but may not do well for outdoors).   Print as many bottoms as you do tops.  The screw goes through the bottom and screwed down.  In my example, a license plate is being held on by a screw.  Then snap a color coordinated top on.  My gray car now has gray screw covers instead of bare black screws.  Pretty Pretty.

No supports required.  Print a set of caps.  Print a set of bases.  Put the screw through the base and tighten it down.  Then snap a cap on top to hide the screw.
