I did some more changes.
The scoop comes up, and it lines up with the vents on both sides.
I carved a little indentation on top of the scoop with another opening. Now I'm just debating to put another opening on the top of the scoop. The scoop comes off for easy painting, and it would be nice to put that pretective clear plastic down like they do with the cars to prevent stone chips. Now I just need to find some nice chrome or black screws.
I fiberglassed most of the wood, that **** is so hard to work with theres no way I could make a fiberglass mold.
So when I decide what other detail I like to finish it, I'll paint it black for now and I'll find someone that could do a fiberglass mold and see how much it will cost if anyone would be interested.
I think when I do mine I would like it orange with the black tribal down the top of the scoop.
 
primed spoiler

I don't know what happened, I thought I put some pictures up.
But any how here's some pictures.
The second picture, you can see that it's all dug out and shaped and there is plenty of air flow up into the radiator. Now I need to do some more sanding and paint it black to see what it looks like.
I might still put some slit's up on top .
Even though my other spoiler looked good, different shape as well as a different scoop- this one in my oppinon looks the best.

Now I just need to find someone who could use this as a mold so I could make some more. I think it will be a lot easier now because I made this one in two peices, so the top comes off.
I also think it would be easier for the fiberglasser and it will be more easy to paint.
How much do you guys think this should cost to fiberglass? If any one is interested let me know.
This one really suits the Rocket it gives the Rocket some more attitude
I did the best I can, now it will take a proffesional fiberglasser to make it a gem.
I will take some pictures of the whole bike Saturday or Sunday.

Hope these pictures gives a good idea what it looks like.
I'm shure it will look even better when its wet sanded and painted,
it look a lot better up close I think this style really suits the Rocket.
I made so many spoilers and changed up so many times I drove my self crazy because I had so many different ideas and because I'm so picky,but I think this ones is it .

It's just my brackets are not 100% But I'm shure some one that knows what he's doing could make better ones.

Cane, this is a bit off topic, but I just have to smile every time you post a pic showing those jardines

Nice job on the spoiler!!!

Thanks xhdR3rider yes the Jardines really look cool on the Rocket and they sound nice as well
I kind of wish it was a six cylinder so I could have the three headers on the other side as well

Grey Fox thanks I'm not sure how much it will cost but I would think it will be a little more costly then just a plain spoiler.
I would think the more detail the cost would be more, but the good thing is that I made the top scoop that could come off so it would be more easy to do and paint.
But I can't fiberglass most of that woodin spoiler is covered in fiberglass and there is still so much more to sand but its smooth.
But lets see how many people is interested and I'll try to find some one that could give me a good deal I'm sure the more he or she could make up at once will keep the cost down

Sorry it took so long.
It wasn't nice out when I took the pictures but I think it still looks good .
The radiator cover is off because the chrome was looking bad so I'm fixing it and painting it black, and my vents I'm doing up even nicer.

new spoiler

If anyone would be interested in purchasing one of these spoilers, let me know. The more people that I could get the more cheeper I could have them made I'm not looking to make money I just wanted to make a spoiler that looked good and something different.
If you're interested let me know and I'll find out prices.
