geek i thought that plexus was a us company you should be able to get it if not let me know i will give you the contact info of the place i get it from i would say that they would send it to you probably work out ok cash wise with the exchange rate
slug : its not my boat or motor i wish it was i just cant wait to get a pull on that throttle

wax: well if the motor stuff is here and kizza pulls his finger out it looks like we will be up there for christmas for some tuning, riding and drinking piss
i love road trips
yeah it sucks about the parts you have been waiting on it is a shame to see that someone with such a great name in the industrie has stuffed you round for so long also sucks that you cant go to daytona because of it to

The problem (for me anyway) is not finding Plexus, but rather getting it in a small quantity. Say, just 2 tubes or 4 tubes (to split with freestylegeek) but all the suppliers want to sell me a case of 12 @ $40 each tube... ouch!$$$ And it will go bad if you dont use it all in a year... and you need the applicator gun... :banghead:

Wow, great job Cambo! I can't believe that I just noticed this thread! I hope that the pm I sent you will help with the alignment of the hood.

Look's like you did ok with the front nose lip. Of course, the front nose mold sure helps alot

keep the pics coming!
