Default GM wind screen for verts.

I'm trying to find out who makes the GM C6 Wind Screen to see if they are going to make one for the C5's. Any help? I think it looks so much cleaner then the Vette Nette but I've tried to contact GM and they won't give out the manufacturer.

I don't know about the GM one, and I am not a fan of any of them, but have you checked out the newer version of the vette net?
If not, I would recommend looking at it.
Sorry if that's no help.

Well the wife complains about the wind messing up her hair and the guy who had the C6 said his did the same and that the wind screen made a big difference.
Is the new Vette Net still the round pipe looking stuff?

Yes. What's "new" about it (I'm talking about the Vette Net) is the deflector is made of some kind of plexi-glass vice an actual screen/net. I think it sits a little lower as well.

Gotta add, though its a little pricey it works better than you'll expect as long as you keep your windows up.

On the other hand, it's pretty much useless at freeway speeds if your windows are down.
