Don,
I have a custom built Stainless steel shroud with a Triuph logo emblazed on
the top. It looks great, keeps the engine cool during the steamy summers
here in VA and I have had tons of comments on it. The shroud was done by the
PO who is a good friend but it is not a difficult thing to reproduce - you
already have a Cardboard template :-)
