Decals

It looks fantastic! I really like the way the pinstriping accents the curves. I think I may do something similar to mine even though it's not a CE. Just started the razor blading of mine...

Felt Strips

I would imagine they are probably worn down somewhat but when I first installed the vents I could clearly see some slack in the ends, hence the silicone beads. The silicone is not visible at all and...

Stainless steel rivets

I agree they would be an absolute bear to pull. That being said I would be more concerned that it would pull the head right through the fiberglass before the mandrel broke? If they are designed to...
