I received my 3D metal prints. Fit is tight but lock into the wiper arm and the wiper blade
Here is the adapter piece in the wiper blade and installed on the car

Interesting to see how a very small part turns out from metal 3d printing.
What’s your assessment of the final result? Think it’s going to do the job well?

It fits well. I think it will hold up well.
I should note that I didn’t pay for a smooth surface finish. I figure I can handle that at home if needed.
If I had a lathe then I would have tried to make these at home. The cost for 2 pieces with shipping was around $75.

Looks really nice. I'll be replacing my 260z wipers today, curious how the aftermarket blades will fit

I quickly found that wiper connections change often. I bought new blades from the same store, same brand and same box but the connection had changed and would not support the pin style. I still had the connection pieces from design and testing so I made it work.
I also found an older Bosch part that can convert to the J hook style but it is a permanent change.
