Default Great work!
Soulific,

You've done a great job. I spent $180 on a used lip and it doesn't fit as nicely as yours. And, by using a flexible material it will probably last a lot longer than some aftermarket fiber glass lips. Keep looking for and sharing your ideas. Welcome to CL.

They make a 15' version that wouldn't require cutting into multiple pieces.

Nice job. You've convinced me to try my own lip as well.
