hey guys thanks for the feedback. well just for info... if anyone has a set they could measure for me to compare from theres to mine that would be great...
the measurements i have done are the sides are 100mm by 60x35mm its 35mm at the highest point.... they are 320mm across with an arch as they need to fit semi flush if you guys know what i mean!!!! if anyone has measurements for the sides and top could you please let me know as i would like to know how far i am off with making these ones... thanks guys

How do you fix the metal ones down carps? I reckon the little ears/lugs used as weber ram tube retainers will do the trick but to get the screw driver in under the actual cowl might be tricky.
You might have to bring the sides in to allow for some fixing tabs accessible from the outside of the cowl. Or have some access holes drilled, but not sure how that will look.
