Erm without stating the obvious ...... have you tried Simon at JustRoadster ? (he does not bite but he will keep you talking for ages
Re: Wanted: Perspex Wind Deflector for Dual Hoops
I'm guessing Simons deflector won't fit those chrome hoops?

Re: Wanted: Perspex Wind Deflector for Dual Hoops
Has anyone bought one of Simon's wind deflectors....(No wisecracks please ) I mean one of the perspex jobs... How thick is the perspex??
Re: Wanted: Perspex Wind Deflector for Dual Hoops
I've had a couple off simon (in fact my first was his prototype). My second he custom made for the AC Schnitzer hoops (they have to be custom made for those as there is no set installation height).
They are the best quaility ones I've ever seen as they are properly machine cut.
Sorry I don't know the thickness and my cars 30 miles away in storage (until Sunday ) If you look at my journal you can see them being fitted with detailed pics.

Re: Wanted: Perspex Wind Deflector for Dual Hoops
I looked at your pics..looks a really good fit. As a rough estimate, would you say about 3/8" thick??
Re: Wanted: Perspex Wind Deflector for Dual Hoops
I was keen to find out if anyone had a second hand one they wanted to sell.

I made my own out of 6mm perspex, made a cardboard template and drew round it onto the perspex, cut it out with a jigsaw and polished the edges with a grinder and sandpaper. Cost about 30 quid in total

Have you found 6mm to be thick enough? What did you use to attach it to your roll bars? I had considered making my own, but thought I'd test the water for a secondhand one first.

Are you ok to send to Johannesburg - South Africa??
Re: Wanted: Perspex Wind Deflector for Dual Hoops
Hi Yocky, I assume by standard roll hoops you mean factory fit roll bars, so its this model you have:yocky z3 2.0 wrote:Hi jav11s i have got one of simons perspex wind deflectors with the finishing strip on the edges that fits standard roll hoops could have it for £70 if interested ,now got mesh one from bmw cheers tony.

Assuming it is then I would guess the 2 are a different shape?

Re: Wanted: Perspex Wind Deflector for Dual Hoops
Yocky - thanks for offering it to me, but I assume these are different otherwise Simon would just sell the same one for both. Thanks again, hopefully it looks you might have another buyer anyway.
