If it is a pure 2d piece, we can use layers of acrylic, which can be much cheaper to 2d laser cut than to individually 3d print. We need to do a test to see how much height the solder takes up on average and then build around it. We can also employ a nylon screw to hold the acrylic backplate to cover the PCB.I think it's reasonable to have it require up to 5mm of clearance, much better than the current 15mm clearance for the PCIe power connectors.
