Most low-end 3D filament printers can print in either PLA, ABS, or even nylon. PLA prints are known to distort in a hot car. ABS is extruded at around 250C. I think nylon is a bit higher. I would think that ABS would work well. There are now some low-ish cost (like under $3000) stereo-lithography printers available that print by scanning a liquid resin with a laser. Some of those resins are good for higher temperatures. The low end resins have a glass transition temperature of around 100C.
Another possibility is to make a mold and cast the parts out of epoxy. Epoxies that can handle over 400C are available.
