I've just had a rummage round the hangar ( big shed ) and found one. I slightly cracked it when I removed it of the cowl, but it is still usable. yours free of charge, just pay for the postage.

This is the moulding supplied in the later Europa kits to fabricate an extra air intake for the 912 ULS engine. If you have one that you have no further use for that I could buy or one I could borrow. Please message me on Matronics.
