Thanks Jo. Wasn't trying to totally copy your design I think it's different enough that the 36 owner wouldn't be mad. I hope!

Testing a 29P Mirage plus and then the spacer this week.

You are correct about the solution... there is no vinyl in the world that can hold up to the pressure of that bow stop dragging on it.

It's clear right there anyway, right? So no problem.

To help keep a smooth line when you trim, use 1/4" fine line tape to mark your line... then use it as an edge to press the xacto blade against as you cut.

Great looking job!
