yes CD12 shows those pointy bumpers my CD11 does not have them but has back bumpers in the cowl,
if you are missing “front bumpers” you may be able to make some using common tire valves with the brass threads snipped off. they work great as “back bumbers” to replace the original star shaped bumpers
so maybe doing some creative carving on tire valves will work out cheap
What a great tip!I’ve been trying to come up with a substitute for those bumpers.
