You tape off the edges to avoid over spray and drips, and spray the inside... Outside of the shield looks factory smooth and shiny. Try it on an old shield or piece of plexiglass for practice if you like. I'll try to post pictures of mine later

| | Posted : 08 Sep 2012 - 06:57 Post title : Re: Tinted Screen for the storm (Re: RBinTEX) | | | Found a universal type tinted windscreen that wasn't too bad and only $120.
 
I mounted it really close & had to dremel the lower mount bars so they wouldn't hit the tank when turning, then painted the ends.
 
Then i marked where the double headlights touched the single shaped bottom & dremeled it a little larger to keep the windscreen as low & sleek as possible    
It really takes the pressure off when freeway riding, and hits me just at the top of the head (I'm 5'11") with the screen mounted low. Quieter & cleaner as it keeps the bugs off too!
