The automotive parts and accessories market is an important source of revenue for global automotive manufacturers, in this paper, focusing in Brazilian case. With expressive billing it has a large and complex distribution chain that can be profoundly altered by a disruptive innovation that may be the arrival of 3D printing. This technology is still focused on processes with low volume of distribution, but presents great potential for high capacity to modify the whole cycle of the supply chain. It is fundamental important that affect companies know the benefits interference of this technology, its capabilities, risks and, mainly, the potential impacts on its own business. This research demonstrated the importance of these markets for the automotive industry and then elucidated important concepts of innovation. Through the objectives point out the potential impacts that can be generated by 3D printing technology in the distribution objectives, a-) demonstrate the importance of supply chain strategies; b-) check from the perspective of customization; c-) aspects of the operation of a 3D printing; shown conditions for the companies to develop strategies for using this technology, so as not only survive, but also make the most of its use.
