Thanks for the reply Freddy. 

I am happy about progress but it is coming at a price: I am not doing much of 
anything
besides work and then building airplane :) My poor family has been extremely
patient I have to say!. But to me getting home and working on the plane
is a form of therapy so my wife understands and lets me work :)

It may not sound like from my posting but I am also incredibly lazy when it 
comes
to modifying. I have done very little of that in my Europa because I want to
finish it quickly. But since I have two other airplanes I can fly (a LongEZ
and a Kolb firestar) I am going to leave the Europa on primer and use up 
leftover
materials to do small changes here and there (mostly aesthetics and drag 
related).
I've been told that once you finish a project like this you crave missing
some epoxy and doing something. So making little improvements may be a fun
hobby after the build is finished.

My biggest concern is weight. I want to keep it light so let's see what weight
I get when I finish. If light enough I may try drag improvements but if heavy
I may refrain from adding anything to it.

Chris
