Here ya go, check out harley.farmer(s) album of his fine Limited. He's put on a windshield that I think you might like (I certainly do). He told me that it was a windshield from Memphis Shades. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/membe...y-friends.html
Good luck in your search!

I used a section of "Limo Tint" on my old FLHT. You could stop by a sign shop and get a piece of Auto-Grade black vinyl....then cut it to fit the lower section of shield.
Install it wet and squeegee out the bubbles

I'll go with blue tape, some 440 sandpaper to etch the surface, and black Krylon spray paint for plastic. Final answer.

That's what I did on the SG to cover up the T-bag pouch.
