    That's all on the mod list. The way I procrastinate tho it should get done around ... 2018 ... NOT!!!

    BTW, I gotta remove the hood insert again. One of the corner studs was broken off. I hoped double sided tape would hold it in place ... I don't.

    Well I've gotten 2 estimates on repairing and repainting my cracked hood insert. The first was at a customizing place ... $450. The second was at the place that painted my SeaDoo a cupla years ago ... $600.

    Rekin I'll be trying my hand at fiberglass repair myself (I work cheap when I work for myself).

    My only concern is that the SeaDoo guy indicated that the insert is SMF (or SMC or something like that) & fiberglass resin wouldn't stick to it very well. Ideas???

    I was thinking of using this stuff (it's worked well for me in the past):

    At the price of that repair, the CF hood insert option is definitely looking very desirable at $330.
