Finally putting some effort to rebuild the upper gap cover between the aero cap and trailer.

A quick view of what it might look like using some 1"x2" lumber.

The upper width is 35.75" while the rear upper width is expected to be 30.75" and about 45" long. I have enough acrylic to cover the frame once I have the frame cut and beveled. I'm thinking about attaching the acrylic panels on with silicone adhesive and maybe about 4 screws per panel just to make sure the panels don't take off on on their own.
