Boot finished and windscreen started

First task, the boot is now finished;

I'll build up a toolkit to live in there, but at least now I have somewhere to put my helmet at the show.

Of course, while I as at the back of the car I remembered I wanted to change the rear reg plate mounting for something a bit tidier/smaller. 

Next job is windscreens. I started off looking at humps and deflectors, but then I got reminded that a wind deflector was only a temporary thing, and that I wanted Brooklands Aeroscreens as the final product. Now I'm done with IVA I can actually have the proper thing.

Now real aeroscreens are £200+ which isn't really an option. There is one option that is cheaper which could work;

Although I wouldn't have this green as it wouldn't match. But to be honest, the whole design can be done with 3D printed brackets and some acrylic. So I've ordered some acrylic, and time for a bit of CAD;

Yep, you guessed it, cardboard aided design. This is the shape of Brooklands curved glass at a decent angle, and it looks pretty much like what I want. I do need to make some brackets, and I can either go for something very Brooklands like;

Or I could go for a more basic option like the first option. 

Either way I do want to fill in the lower gap. It's not a huge gap;

So I reckon just a couple of mm of TPU would do it. To be honest I could probably leave it without issue but just for completeness a bit of trim will finish it off.

I did start with this as a mounting bracket;

The idea would be for some threaded rod to secure the screen to the car, it would allow adjustment of screen angle and (I think) look quite decent on the car. I'll need a bracket for the screen on one side and a tightening screw on the other. On both sides I'll use embedded nuts so I can apply a decent amount of torque to make things tight.
