Title: Wind Deflector Options
Post by: EJMK3 on July 8, 2021, 17:08
On the lookout for some interesting ideas for the wind deflector, not a huge fan of the tinted plastic... Have heard Chromdesign used to do something about these, but have never seen a picture even and they're stopped production! Any ideas or tips on modifying the current one greatly appreciated!

Depending on what you want to achieve.
Appearance or function.
Made one that was twice the hight and little wider than stock.
Didn't make any difference on the turbulence, and at certain speed it began to fold forward against the seats.
Having a FL, the best improvement on turbulence, is to put something in the holes of the seats.
I used some foam.

The PFL come with that infilled and clad with fabric or leather to choice.
