decided to use nutplates for attaching the NACA scoops to the fuselage for both the front NACA (cockpit ventilation) and the back NACA for the Aerosport Air vents. I ordered the VANS Clear aluminum Air vent for the front panel. Preparing the strips has been a bit of filing work but the intermediate result is good. I need to cut the backing strip along the NACA scoop and i will need to countersink the plastic scoop for the #8 flush screws. I will then install the nutplates to the alustrip.
