I have used an app called 'Polycam' that uses photogrammetry to create 3D models from photos or videos (no fancy phone-lidar required!). It's free for the first 60 scans, and I've found it does a pretty good job, but it still needs to be cleaned up in Blender (or similar).

I eventually broke down and bought a CAD model of my Leaf. I still need to find a model of my wifes Bolt EV. What 3D models do you have (and would be willing to share)?

I have been playing around with openFOAM (the engine behind Airshaper) in my spare time. I will post a few screenshots once I get it up and running. I would like to run a case on my machine and then run the same exact case thru Airshaper and see if we get the same answer. Then I will have more confidence that I can run my own models without having to pay for each one.
