I am getting ready to order my aero screen from kit car direct in UK. Shipping is a killer across the pond so I was wondering if anyone else was planning on ordering anything from them soon and we could combine the order to save some on the shipping? I am paying more to ship the aero screen then the screen is itself.

Chris,
I did the same, one of the little things that I splurged on. But in the end it wasn't worth it. It did not fit at all, and I spent more time modifying it than making a new one. You can probably make one yourself quite easily. Do you have a fibreglass Haynes scuttle? Mine is close to the Haynes book's and I had to add two inches in the center.

I have a aero screen I no longer use. I will snap some pictures tomorrow, maybe I can save you the shipping cost.

I am making my own steel scuttle so I can make it to match the aero screen.
