Butty, don't worry, the one pic where you can see the back of the backrest is enough, the backrest looks OK to me without S/S bling.
See you made the screen surround fit

Yes. Stood up to me beating it. But there is a couple of little dents in it. I think there was something in the gell or mat that dried back. Easy fix

It's perfect. Respayed the engine and cleaned most of the bay. Done all the teak just got to seal it when it's dry. Going to look ok I reckon. What's your news. Good or bad
