Default windsheild....

i came across an easy do it yourself idea for the wraith... use some packaging clear plastic to make yourself a windsheild. i just used three zip ties around the roll cage under the hood an two under the roof. turned out nice!

Thats definately a new look on the metal doors, pretty cool! The half cut is a great look too! Kinda reminds me of some of the side by side ones out there.

the first pic gives u an idea how i mounted it.... pretty simple. instead of zip ties on top i jus used the two roof screws.
the clear plastic is jus from some electronics package i cut up. nothin fancy lol.
