I have a LoPresti cowl and need a landing light lens cover. Can anyone tell where I can get one? LoPresti sent me a square pc. of plexiglass for lots of bucks that was "contoured" and that was it...not cut to size or any holes drilled.......appreciate any help! Thanks, Carol N28742 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:42:18 PM PST US Subject: Re: TeamGrumman-List: Tiger - LoPresti Cowl From: Airport Bum Ours cracked as well with very low hours. Have heard from others that this a common problem. Seems like the origional was poorly machined and finished. The rough edges allow the lens to crack leaving the customer with the bill and down time to fix the problem. They really should step up & do the right thing and take care of the customers who purchased their expensive product. Kevin Carol Stocker wrote: >Hi, >I have a 1978 Grumman Tiger, Ser. #0787.
