    the transluscent wind screens crack with impunity. virtually impossible to avoid. on the other hand the transluscent airbox covers are pretty robust pieces if correct hardware is used along with gentle loving fastener touch. most of the "tophats" are missing....hence the cracks all over front of airboxes.

    No worries Lunatic, I didn't think it was directed at me anyway.

    There was a bit of ambiguity at the start of this thread. There was no mention of a translucent air box cover so I was clueless.
    And once again I've learned something new. I had no idea translucent air boxes required "special" hardware.

    AND I also learned that if I want to get John fired up I just need ignore his posts!!!
    Ha ha ha J/K buddy!
