Looks good!!!

What did you end up going with? Same material throughout????

If you don’t mind sharing, how much did it run you? I need to take mine to a legit place and get their thoughts. Mine looked just as good as a new one from a place I went to but Ithink his material was not in great condition

Would love to see a couple pics once it's all done. Looking to replace mine this summer and struggling between the original blue and something like you've done but have a hard time picturing how it'd look.

That white is 5200. Well hardened... today I put a thin bead of thick Six10 epoxy around it and will paint ducer with Pettit spray

Is that where your old one was installed? any concern with it being so close to your pickups?

That is where I put my GT51M on my 268. Nowhere else to put it. Worked well for my Florida trip earlier this year. Only complaint was I did not "see" much more with SideVu and DownVu on the Garmin 943xsv.
