The red part is soft and mushy and the grey part is hard like rock.
I whipped up another design that maybe would be better, but I'll only ship it if Scud agrees to take the "plugs" out on the flight line with his mouth.

Ok, true story. My buddy working in the adult video store. They have one a bit smaller than a traffic cone. Called it big red and would joke about it. One day a guy comes in browses a bit, spots the thing and says, “No way! I’ve been looking all over for this.” Immediately buys it.

Get on Etsy with those things.
Next thing you might need me to drive you down to Idaho once they open the border, to see Bob Hanah and buy a new Scout or something.
You can even pick your favourite colours if you order one.

Sure!
I have 4 vents to cover over in the winter.
Down here, there is no such thing as ball hockey, just baseballs and other leathery oblong things they throw at each other.
…
I have a ‘53 and ‘67 Cessna. If I guy were to request custom butt, I mean vent plugs with the Cessna logo, could they be the 3 flag one from the vintage era?
