I would like to come up with something to fix the butt ugly wing tip close outs.
Here is what I'm thinking.....
1. Lay 3-4 layers of fiberglass on the edge to build it up to the same thickness as the light kit tip extender.
2. Counter sink and pull rivet the bonded material to the wing tip for strength and stability.
3. Add resin and flox paste to fill in the forward tip area for a smooth transition.
4. Wrap a couple more wet pieces of fiberglass over the whole thing and sand to blend it all in.
5. What do you all think?
I know there are some creative builders and composite guys lurking here. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
