Show me your KF 5-7 cowls

Looking for some avidfoxflyer assistance here...

I need a cowl for my Avid+ and preliminary investigation with a KF 7 Smooth Cowl for 912 (pics) suggests the wider Kitfox Model V-VII cowls are a good fit width wise, as well as for windscreen curve and rake. I know several other cowl options in the Kitfox online catalog ( http://www.kitfoxaircraft.com/Product_Catalog/KApartscat-rev020309.pdf ) but, unfortunately, the catalog doesn't include pics. Ergh! If you have one of the following cowls on your Kitfox Model 5, 6, 7 or SuperSport and could post a few pics, I sure would appreciate seeing the difference:

a.) 2-part Smooth Cowl for Lycoming O-235

b.) 2-part Smooth Cowl for Continental O-200 / IO-240

c.) 2-part Smooth Cowl for Jabiru 3300

Thanks much.
