Default Road Warrior Shield

Does anyone know who makes Road Warrior shields besides Memphis Shades? I’m looking for something different. Darker tint for my 13” shield. Memphis Shades only makes the dark black smoke for shields up to 11”.

Thanks

If you find a source let me know. Dropping $100 a shield to dial in the perfect height hurts the pocket book

Use black vinyl on the inside of your shield.

Does that black it out or tint it. I just want a darker tint. It shocks me that no one makes different shields for this setup. I’m confident there is a need for them. I have seen guys with different color translucent shields red, blue, etc. I just don’t know where they did it.

You should be able to tint it depending on how dark the vinyl is.

Take the shield into a window tint shop, got my truck windows done for like 150, guessing a windshield would be pretty cheap

I wanted a darker shield when i bought my 13". I'm actually pretty glad i couldn't get one. At 5'8" i can see far enough over the shield when riding on a level surface, but as soon as i'm riding up a slope i'm looking through the shield. With a darker tint i wouldn't be able to see much of the road.

I have that issue as well. I’m 5’6 and can just see over the 13” shield.
