    Hadn't thought about it but might just work.. Could always do it in vinyl or plasti-dip to see before going all out..

    I've got a set of the fiber ones at the painter right now. I pre-fit them before I took them.

    As soon as I took delivery of them, Orranje in the UK came out with vented metal ones made from OEM A panels! Their cost painted was cheaper than the fiberglass ones I got without the paint!

    Do you know what all is involved to get the cowl off Dave? Its not a very easy job... I know!

    You could always have it sprayed in place, but wheres the fun in that...
