The sides were made by grinding/routing out the slots, correct? Did you make a jig?

      I do have a question for you. Where did you get the big hood vents?

              I may keep my CMC windshield and modify it to fit the MG parts I have consisting of Cowl Brackets Moss PN 408-315 & 325 and Side Supports Moss PN 408-230 & 240.

              I still have to purchase miscellaneous bits and pieces to make it work.

Needs chrome but otherwise is ok.

              it is about $600 to chrome one in Florida.

              I saw another on eBay for $800 and probably could be used as-is but chrome would enhance its look

If so, can you provide some detailled photos? I have the brackets and can fabricate the windshield side supports (Moss 408-230 & 240) but I am not sure if the fold-down feature is useful. Is it?
