Can anyone recommend a resource for a seat cowl for an '04 12s?

Unfortunately I can't justify spending $269 from ASB for this particular item and I'm not interested in carbon fiber?

Trajan horse has fiber glass ones, but they need paint because the come in white gel coat. The carbon one from ebay seem to fit ok and look decent, just paint it! No matter which one you get from where or what it's made of, it will need paint.

Thanks Mike, the paint piece I'm good with and plan to do. I did see the Trojan-horse, but havent dealt with them personally so had some reservations dealing across the pond, specifically shipping times.

They do seem to be on the positive side of conversations I've read here on the forum.

Good stuff, thanks Mike! [up][up]

I went ahead with the MDI CF. Who knows, I may put that cf on there and it may grow on me. It'll give me options, rather than primer out of the box.
