Yes, I got both the cowl & wheel pants from Stan's. They were great to deal with. The cowl had a decent sized seam on it which took a bit of sanding to smooth out, but nothing difficult. I did have to cut a lot of the bottom of the cowl to fit around the pitts muffler, but from what I've read here on RCU I'll need the exit space anyway to prevent overheating. I've also put a .46FX in mine.

I've decided not to mount the wheel pants. I was encouraged to put larger wheels on the plane because our field isn't the smoothest, and I don't think they'll fit. Plus I'm sure I'll just break them on one of my patented 3-hop landings.
