Perry, et al.

  since there is a disagreement about this flap, I have compromised a 
bit.  Since one needs that piece to wrap the header bar and wood bow, 
what I did was to move the "flap" a bit higher so the chrome frame is 
still exposed a bit. I should have it done by mid-day tomorrow. I'll 
post my pictures then or soon after... dave
