Well, if it were me, at this point I'd just sand it all down to as smooth a finish as you can get with 400 grit, don't worry about taking off all the paint. Wash it real good, Then overlay a layer of 5/8-3/4 oz cloth and resin as if you were glassing wood , sand it smooth, rattle can automotive primer, spot putty, etc. typical prep and paint to your liking. IMHO It's worth a try.
10-4 on that! I found a way to cut my cooling holes out with out chopping the scoop off, opening the slits in the vents wasn't to bad with a small bit on the drem. With a 3.5" spinner, I have over 2-1 on cooling verse intake. It should be plenty I hope.. I am also going with the stock muffler, with the whole cowl issue I'm not dropping the $$ for a wrap around... I just have to cut off the very corner of the muff and I got a buddy who can close the wound for me..
GMP replied to my email and asked for the pics of the damage, he is sending them to china to get them replaced, the cowl and canopy.. Hope he is able to come through with them, save a lot of up coming work on the canopy..
