Mark I made up an angled bracket...one face vertical that attaches under the top rear WAF bolt, the other flush with the wing surface with nutplate in it. One end of my cover bolts to the nutplate and laps over the gap. The cover then wraps forward, around and back under to a similiar arrangment on the bottom WAF bolt. The cover pulls and clamps up tight when that bolt is tightened. An alternative arrangment would be to use a hose clip with the end rivetted to the cover. The hardest bit was making the over which is has a compound curve in fibreglass. I tried an aluminium strip initially but it just wouldn't take the bends and pull up flush all the way around.
....well that's one way...who's next.
