Default Getting A New Windshield, But .....

2016 Limited Ultra. I've always preferred to look THROUGH a windshield rather than over it. Must be the Rushmore fairings are a different shape because I have this annoying reflection of the fuel door, right in the middle of my windshield. Never had it on my 2011 Limited Ultra. Had the fuel door powder coated, but I still see a reflection of everything around the fuel door that's chrome. It's not unsafe --- just kind of annoying. Anybody else have a Rushmore Limited, and experienced this reflection?

I kinda like the LRS MegaCurve recurve windshield, and gonna try a shorter one, and look over the top of it, but I need to hear from people with an LRS recurve on a Rushmore Limited to make sure I won't see that reflection. Everything good with the LRS MegaCurve?

I have a '14 Limited with a LRS 9" Ultra Recurve and there is a reflection in the middle of the shield. I mean, it's not a clear reflection of the actual fuel door. The reflection is kind of a dispersed horizontally across the shield, if you know what I mean. But, I look over the top of the shield, so that's probably why I've never noticed it before.
