Yesterday I converted a clear deflector I had purchased to make a competition style small windshield for the cobra into a full face shield for running the FF. Made a pattern of heavy paper, trimmed the lexan to size, heated it up to 300 F in the oven and bent it to the correct shape while it was still hot and plastic in its behavior. Then pop riveted it onto the existing short visor.

I'll have to get a pic and post it.
