They are still available.... I had a new one in standby and the one my Valk was wearing gave up when there was gas spilled on it. So, I installed the new one in standby from 3 years ago, and ordered/received a new one which I placed in standby. I may try to remove the old plastic chrome from the one bubbled up..... then again, I might just let it sit on the shelf next to the new one I have in standby.
I had my local dealer price match HDL/DLP as well.... as they always do. I had to pay tax, but didn't have to pay shipping or handling.

HDL has them in stock, got one a month ago, cheaper than a used one.

I replaced mine, may have damaged the original with chrome polish thinking it was metal instead of plastic.

Just got a new OEM one. I lined it with an insulation blanket; hopefully the chrome won't wrinkle.

I really like what you did with it. How long did it take to peel the chrome off? Once started, does it come off easily? thanks |

I then filled & sanded the left front side to re-contour the surface from heat warp. Primer, color & clear. Wet sand clear and polish. All'n all about 3.5 hrs. total. I used http://colorrite.com/ rattle-can products. I've had some practice tho'...fairing & pods. |
