>>Gold Wing .............. before they went belly up.<<

I rather think they made a tactical withdrawal from the market, after taking
numerous paid-up orders that were never delivered.

Presumably the Kunzleman (Airworld) fin covers are no good to you?

I was going down a similar route to provide a more streamlined cover over a
cylindrical fresnel lense. If you make a wooden plug of what you want, it
may be possible to persuade an aeromodeller canopy maker to do the rest.

I'll be interested to learn of your experience/progress with this.
