After the resin cured overnight (six layers of 6 oz cloth applied), I used a dremel to remove the old material and expose the new.
Ugly at the moment, but it worked.
Lots of sanding in my future...

That makes good sense Carlos.  Thank you for the clarification.  You are doing careful work.  I am sure it will turn out nicely!

Hello, Tim

My best guess is that my cowl is different because it is meant for a CH601/CH650, aka Zodie.

The CH7xx cowl needs (I presume) bigger air intakes as it can fly slower than the Zodie.

HI Carlos - Any idea why your cowling appears different than the one Scott Matthews fitted to his Cruzer?  Is yours a "newer" design, an "older" design, or ?   I am just curious why a FWF cowl for the CH750 series would require mods like this.   Thank you for sharing the details of your fitment.  Tim
