I don't know if you can tell from this picture, but the lip along the sides of the buggy has been bridged back to the main tub, creating a tunnel along the sides. This goes all the way past the rear fenders to the very back of the buggy
That, and the fact that my body is not a Manx made the sidepods not fit well at all. They were too short in the front and too tall in the back, and the curvature of the rear fenders didn't match.
So I had to cut the front and rear horns off and cut the rear of the pods down to fit. I would have liked to have had the pods overhang the pan along the sides, but with them being too short in the front I couldn't. I cut up the rear horns enough to piece them together and make new ones that followed the curve of the fender. The pods are glassed on all the way around airtight.
And thats where I am at tonight. Still have some fine tuning to do, but all the heavy lifting is done.
Thanks for looking...
