Bill-

I am glad to hear that I am not the only one that likes the fairing look. Right now I am in the process of fiberglassing the fairing and pulling the interior and dash getting it ready for paint. I was also planning on finishing the trailer also. It is aluminum so the main I beams will be polished. The one problem I am having though is finding Polished stainless fenders that will bolt onto my trailer, any suggestions? I will keep posting pictures and progress continues.

looking forward to seeing the finished fairing.

Polishing the trailer looks awesome. We do a few a year to the mirror polish. It is ALOT of work -- but looks great when complete. That is prior to building so easier. Bottom line... worth the effort and easier to keep looking nice.

We can get polished Stainless fenders..... There are expensive (about $120.00 ea - our cost) but look great.
I am ball parking the cost of the fenders because it depends on size naturally. Eddie at Extreme in CA buys him unpolished but polishing stainless is tough. To me.. its not worth the saving vs the labor cost to do them in house.

Email me when you get ready and we will get you some fenders at cost or see if there is a local distributor in your area --- which may end up being cheaper with shipping figured in.

Thanks for your help I really appreciate the information. You said that you are looking at a 311. What year is it? Power? Color? If you have pictures that would be cool too. Where is it located?

Hi Y'all

Sorry I haven't been keeping up with pictures but I have been away on work trips. Here are some pictures of the fairing and the boat that I pulled out of storage today. Let me know what you think.
