In the attempt to upgrade the original top wing, this piece may be a little too nice to be a good match. But I do have another less-flashy piece that may be a more accurate match for the RM bottom wing. I'm planning on cutting both pieces down to the top wing shape and see which is a better visual match. If I don't use the nicer piece, then maybe I'll cut a bottom piece from the same block and have the beginnings of a new project altogether.

Things that make me go "hmmmmm..."

You say this in jest, but the Transblack concept is an idea I have for yet another project for The Harley bass involving a facelift with snazzy veneer & various other whatnots.
