Just had my rear screen replaced ready for Le Mans, would like to recommend Shaw Windridge in Birmingham as they did a top job and for a very reasonable price. Got the hood tension just right and the stitching is neat as well. http://www.thehoodguys.co.uk/ Only thing is I feel guilty folding it down now!


Sorry about the pic!

Looks a really clean and tidy job thumbup

Do you mind me asking how much was it?

Was it a replacement screen stiched in, or a complete new rear section?

My screen has about 6-8" of perished stiching, now held in place with Impact adhesive and gaffer tape boxedin

Thanks

Me too.

My rear screen is probably the original and is very thick and creases easily. The stitching is also starting to perish where it creases when the hood is put down. It is also very scratched and hard to see out of.

Cheers thumbup
