I printed these in Bambu Lab TPU 95A HF and, while not as tacky as the factory feet, they are functional. They also work printed in PLA in a pinch, but of course won't provide any traction.
You will need a section of 1/8 shock chord and Reflectix. But for the shield you can use any material you want. In one of my photos I used a paper plate. See video I created
