What spare parts for i3 MK2 should I print?

I've played with PLA and today I'm trying PETG for the first time.  Right now I'm printing parts for the extruder as I'm worried that might get damaged if I experience a shutdown w/o cooling.

What parts, if any, would you recommend I print to have spares in case something bad happens?  I only have one printer.

Thanks,

At this time, I would be wary of printing spare parts, as the Mk3+ pars are coming soon.... 

Perhaps a fan shroud... (Should be ABS But PETG Is better than nothing. )

Plus an extruder Back (with Pinda Mount, )
and and extruder front 

and leave it at that for the time being...

This is embarrassing, I printed a few parts before I realized I have the i3 MK3.
