A spot welder would be the best way to weld the fin into place, very easy to use, just set the timer and press together...
Add to wish list, A 230 volt hand held Spot Welder..

i,ll be using a TIG AS MY MIG IS KAPUT

Hmmm, all the carbon cowls have no lip on the L shape cut out

Is a cowl with the scoop a preferred choice or not?
And what about cutaway or removed footboards, help or hindrance?
May have to send one down Steve
May have asked before, but what happened to the MB ones?
