Consumer level 3D printers will be to rough texture, and you need to get it in CAD design first. Once you get design you could order 3D prints online on professional 3D laser printers, not sure about costs.

To make 1000 pieces by injection molding you are looking at £20k for design and mold and about £5k for production of 1000 units, which would work out £25 a piece. If you order 10,000 it would work out only £7 piece
