Premade canopy fairings,front and back made easy!!!
OK so I stumbled onto this webpage and found Pre-made front and rear fairings for the RV's at pilotlights.net Left side of page blue boxes and #6 from the bottom you'll find RV fairings. Click on it and They'll show you the whole installation process. Expected hour savings is 20 to 30 hrs.

The website you posted links to a wedding planning site (I think you meant pilotlight s.net)
http://www.pilotlights.net/pilotlights_014.htm
It seems like a great idea, but $1000 for the two fairings is a lot of scratch.
Another seller, different solution

Ron,
How about making it easier for us and posting the link rather than describing it. When I type pilotlight.net into a browser I get sent to a wedding planner page. There is no link to any canopy fairings on this page. I have checked the date and its not the 1st of April and with Williams´s wedding next Friday, I have had enough of weddings.
OK Wings has since posted the correct link. Thanks mate.

Come on Ron, it was not that bad a mistake. I was just trying to lighten up in my British way. Do they do RV marriages in Las Vegas? As for next Friday, I hear 1.5 billion people around the world will be glued to thier telly watching a very expensive wedding. I, however, will be at work.

I've been considering the alum one for awhile and would sure like to here from someone who has installed it.

Fairings or glass?
I too am wondering if anyone has tried the fairing idea instead of the all glass route. I like the idea of not ruining the paint if a canopy change is needed but what about overall look and possibilty of wind noise? Building a tipup so the pilotlights is NG. Skunk works may be OK. Ideas anyone?

RV Canopy and Windscreen fairing
Here's the link: http://pilotlights.net/pilotlights_014.htm
We visit the Germany every year and, with some advance planning, can ship within the EU from Germany rather than our facility in Long Beach, California.
Email if you have any questions.
