Default Wind Screen Question

Hello,
Just picked up this windscreen. Love it. It has a GM holo-sticker on it. Can anyone tell me who manufactures these or maybe where it was purchased originally.
Thanks.

It appears to be a VetteNet. The add on piece (foam at the waterfall) is a common owner installed option, but it is not really needed since the 'bow' of the metal clears the waterfall.

Do a search on this Forum - there are vendors that are selling them and can assist.

I have two - one for each Vert. I purchased them from the manufacture - but our Supporting Vendors are selling them for a LOT less.

Notice I have ours painted to match the external color of the Verts.

Just a not - if you need to change the 'screen' it MUST be sent back to VetteNet - the screen is heat shrunk to fit.

Default Wow!

Painted looks great. Thank you for the info.

I actually added the foam (temp) to get me home that day. Did I push it down too far that it road on the center piece? Maybe I should put a stop on the sides to keep from doing that.

Got it for $150 so I didn't think it was too bad. Really does make a difference.

Apparently I am having trouble posting a picture. Any suggestions why my picture didn't show in my post?

Thanks again. great info!
