Finish Kit

Window install  ( 4 hrs )

Finished Machine C'sinking holes along Fwd edge (at Roll Bar), and sanding same edge with 220 then 400 grit.  Worked very carefully, so consumed a lot of time.   I decided to hand file a chamfer on trailing edge of window shim on Roll Bar.   The Roll Bar ( essentially a rectangular tube) does not twist as it goes from top surface to vertical surface.  Consequently, the window shim surface doesn't align w/ plexiglass by about 5 degrees.  Tightening the screws holding the plexiglass will put a bend in the first 1/2"...so I've attempted to minimize that stress.     Test fit -- overall, looks great ...and very pleased NO cracks...Yahoo!  It's been a tense week working on the Window...so glad done with Sect 38-03.
shiny surface is new "chamfer" on window
shim.  Needed some touch up paint anyway.
