Two different hitch cover designs; one with a horse symbol and one with a geometric shape. These are designed to be attractive covers for hitch receivers. There is a hole so that you can bolt it into the hitch receiver so that it doesn't bounce out or sprout wings.
The final version is slightly redesigned to shorten it and speed up print times. However, I now wonder if my hitch sleeve has a hole where others don't - if I need to bring back the previous version that has the hole further out, let me know. My setup may be nonstandard.

Designed for no supports.
I used flexible filament - this is the perfect material for this kind of application.
Flexible TPU Polyurethane Filament - GREY
Temp - 220 C
Extruder speed - 30 mm/s
Infill - 25%
standard resolution
The result is really good looking.
Resize object so that the width is 74 mm - this prints the narrow section at the required 2 inch width.
I stopped the print just as it started the horse symbol and switched to black PLA - it worked great even at the lower temperature.
Note: I have been looking at different hitch receivers and noticed not all hitches have the hole that I have designed these for.....
