I am going simple and subtle.
Tinted screen with PORSCHE on the bottom centered in Black. I've spoke to the maker and he says the black will be able to be seen but it would be a subtle touch.

It should create and subtle look that goes with my black theme.
I already made a tinted windscreen but the idea of a properly done screen has won me over.

I also toyed with the idea of doing a tinted screen with PORSCHE in red. I think it would look good but not flow with the car. And then the idea of etching TURBO crossed my mind but SLEEPER is more my style. (Can my car be called a sleeper??)

The Porsche windscreen looks a little smaller just because of the angle of the camera. They're actually exactly the same size. Obviously from the big "S" on the Windrestrictor you can probably guess that my Boxster is an S model.

Thanks again for the great feedback. We've had lot's of inquiries about the tinted version... Just to clarify, our tinted version is not surface tint. It's died all the way through the product therefore you will not have to worry about peeling or fading at all......

Well as luck would have it there are more photos on the schedule for about two weeks from now. I'm finishing up a bunch of mods and then Memorial Day weekend my Assistant and I are headed over to the coast for some relaxation and a couple photo shoots of her with the car near the beach and redwoods. Sorry though, no thong photos like the Colombian girl.

Stay tuned...

Hey Windrestrictor: are you making tinted replacement windscreens (plain - no beer ads, unicorns, etc.) for "987" Boxsters?

Here's another photo of my Windrestrictor and my Assistant. There are a few more photos in the "Show and Tell" section too, but this is the best one of the Windrestrictor. I like the way the "S" looks like it's just floating there.
