Firewall forward, finish, cowling progress

Oil door fitting underway. It was actually not bad right out of the box – even the curve was a good match for the cowling.

Taped in place for drilling.

Camloc receptacles installed.

The upper edge will have to be trimmed/sanded/massaged a bit to accommodate the gooseneck’s horizontal flange. As it is right now, the edge of that piece butts against the edge of the cutout and won’t permit the door to sit down properly in its recess.

So, a bit more fiddling to do tomorrow.
