Assuming that it IS OK for an owner to work on wheelpants themselves (as
it seems to be) then if I were you, I'd find a local composite aircraft
builder and offer to pay them to fix the pants. I bought prefabricated
wheel pants for my COZY MKIV for $250, and the repair you've described
would take me about 2-3 hours, max. Hell, if I lived anywhere near you,
I'd do it for nothing, just to see how the "certificated" wheel pants
were constructed.

$2500..... That's unbelievable..... Crap, even $1K is unbelievable.
If this guy things (at $60/hr) that it's going to take him 15 hours to
fix the pants, then he hasn't got a clue about composites.
