Update time: Did a for real fitting of both the outer cowl and the inner-to-outer cowl pieces. The outer cowl fits like a dream! The inner-to-outer cowl not so much. It's really not that it doesn't fit right, it's more that it's not made to the right shape. I'm including some pics to show what I mean. The first shows that the bottom curved part does not fit against the bottom of the inner cowl. It's short by over an inch. Right now, I've got the inner-to-outer aligned with the bottom of the outer cowl, which is also aligned with the bottom of the hinge pillar. Those curves fit nicely together. However, by doing that alignment, the upper curved part does not reach the bottom of the inner cowl. Additionally, the bump outs to go over the inner cowl strength lines (hard to come up with the right words, sorry) do not align at all. Not only do they not align, they are at a crazy angle, pointing downwards. Finally, the top of the inner-to-outer cowl part is too wide at the top and was built square, while the opening it needs to fit in is triangular. Whew!
The second pic shows the triangular gap at the top of the inner-to-outer cowl. The third pic shows the remnants of the original piece and how it was shaped correctly. The final pic shows the fitment of the outer cowl.
My first question: has someone found an inner-to-outer cowl piece that is made close to correctly? I'd settle for the top part to be shaped to fit the triangular opening and then fix the bottom! That would be the easiest solution for me.
Second question: In what ways have you operated on your inner-to-outer cowl pieces to make them fit (pics would be super helpful!)?
General suggestions: Anything that might help, please!
In the meantime, I'm going to root around online and see if anything looks promising.
