So,
Looking into this and the group I have. This probably isn't going to work all that great. So we are definitely making the passenger cowl, but the lower is on freeze. Not to mention, stumpy never got back to me about the lower. We can duplicate the cowl easily, the other pieces go up in difficulty for high schoolers on an exponential trend.

Hate the full coverage Sharkskins-style lower cowls... they make the Super Hawk/Firestorm look like all the other crotch rockets out there!
I agree 100%, Ihave the shark on mine, but would love something with better lines, maybe show a little more motor.

I was talking about the seat cowl. The issue is the complexity of the mold. I really dont think that my guy can pull off a two piece mold.

I would like some Carbon Fiber lowers !

I would definitely be into the lower fairing, Carbon would be sweet.

Let us all know what happens with this idea !

Well, we produced our first seat cowl, and had some problems with the vacuum bag. Needless to say it didn't turn out first rate. We are going to fill all the voids on that one with automotive clear coat. It should turn out all right with that. As for the next one, we have it figured out. i was going to take pics but my $400 shop camera got stolen. Needless to say I am pissed. expect to see some for sale going into the summer. They wont be cheap as there is almost a $100 in materials for each one.

Here they are. Prices will start at $200+ shipping Thing is, this is not as good as they are going to look. We put automotive clearcoat on them due to some air bubbles that we didn't get out. So, we haven't wet sanded yet. They look good and will look better. Also, for sale, the yellow tail, as I am upgrading.
