Just put the blisters on and forget the whole thing. First they are non structural, second they will in no way effect the weight and balance, third they do not effect cooling and fourth since 99.5% of the Coupes produced had them installed at the factory no one will know it these were installed at the factory or last week. Don't let your A&P get anal, have him do it or do it yourself and don't bother to put it in the log books. Considering that the FAA does not have a clue what is stock on a coupe why ask for a problem. This is about the same as sending a letter to the IRS asking them if the would like you to bring in your return for an audit.
