Thanks!

That makes me feel better. I am going through all my parts in preparation to fly just making sure I didn't miss anything, and I came across these things. Seemed too thin to be anything too structural, but you never know. And I had already installed the strips for the fiberglass mating to the top of the tailcone.
I did quick turn fasteners on the cowl, which is why I didn't use these strips.......thanks for the help.
