I just got off the phone with that guy. I asked about his cowls for you. He claims his are pristine and wants $900.00 complete.

Thought about stopping by when we were in the area in May but prices seem a little high.

Hippie, that's not a bad price for a complete set in good shape. Just the top and bottom cowls bare from merc are $2800 and some of the bolt on parts are NLA.

Here is another one http://www.screamandfly.com/showthread.php?248573-280-Alien-Cowl-complete-w-skirt

Wow, I had no idea they were that much new from Merc. Not a bad price then I guess.
