Re: TRI-PRO smooth wiper cowl !!!

Not to take away from TriPros efforts for a metal cowl...
I've had one that's made of fiberglass for a while now. Here's the post of when I first got it and the info (hopefully he's still making them). I think he did it with and without wipers.

Re: TRI-PRO smooth wiper cowl !!!

Yeah I too would like to have a smooth wiper cowl.

By the time I would pay my body man to fill in the holes, the labor alone will eat up the cost to justiy it.

Re: TRI-PRO smooth wiper cowl !!!

I am going to give it a shot and make one. They look pretty straight forward and easy to do. I think if a guy doesn't have a welder those fiberglass ones would be a great alternative.

Re: TRI-PRO smooth wiper cowl !!!

Let me know how it turns out. I think the smooth look of those looks sweet. I would like it if they could fill the wiper holes also to make it completely smooth.

Re: TRI-PRO smooth wiper cowl !!!

This thread popped up in my email... I don't know why you guys are afraid of the fiberglass cowl. Mine still looks as good as new, no stress cracks etc...

Are they not available anymore?

Re: TRI-PRO smooth wiper cowl !!!

I just ordered my shaved panel from Scott's. two options, first ship them my cowl and they will shave it including antenna. Have it metal finished no filler for $400. Or $160 for the filler panel and you weld in. After speaking with him about the panel it's made right. Cut to fit nice and tight, hammered and English wheeled to fit all the contours. I will post up pics when I get it.
Always great service from Justin. Thanks again.
