My Brompon is now almost 20 years old, so the originial flap desintegrated more and more. Tape couldn't repair it any more, so I designed a replacement and printed it out of TPU. I did not take it out for a test drive yet, but it looks pretty convincing.
I use a printer with a bowden setup. Printing flexible materials is tricky so it looked quite ugly because of a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot of stringing. You could sureley print it out of stiffer material, but I'm not so sure, if that would withstand a daily use and break someday.

Notes:
I used 3 wall lines. So part went out more or less solid (if you want to use that term, because it is a soft material).
Remove the stringing
Depending to your asthetical standards, this might take you a while.
Attach to your Brompton
Remove the old flap and screw the new flap in place.
