I couldn't guess the cost of putting the leading edge aluminum back on the
Coupe wing but I'll point out that it's a complex curve.  There's supposed
to be a mild indentation just behind the leading edge on the bottom side -
kind of like a drooping leading edge.  You need to be sure your aluminum
leading edge gets this extra curve.

 

>From then on, it's just as Lynn mentioned.

 

Some Coupe wings, metalized by insufficiently informed people, don't have
this indentation behind the leading edge on the bottom and the stall
behavior doesn't match the Coupe's normal minimum speed mush behavior.

 

I'll go with the other.  If you advertise, you might find someone with
perfectly good or stripped fabric wings who would swap and pay you for
shipping costs in order to get those (in their minds) better metalized
wings.

 

Me, I'd prefer the fabric.
