I agree, why spend the extra cash to buy another window with the tint already on it when you can buy the film and do it yourself. That is awesome, congrats on that.

I'd suggest trying it on a spare visor, but getting a spare could mean just buying a tinted visor instead. Bob, I’m not sure.

All other info I found says it can't be done on Lexan, well it looks to me that it can and I'm going to start on my Sportster tomorrow thanks to your help.

The picture that shows the tint film on the outside of the windshield is how I made a rough cut before applying the film. The film clings to the shield better on the outside of the curve than on the inside. When cutting the film, you need as many free hands as possible. The tint is adhered to the inside of the shield or towards the rider. The glare in the last pic should give it away. Thanks, Ken.

It looks like you tinted the forward side of the windshield. Is there any thoughts for or against tinting the side facing the rider? Thanks! Great article.
