Default Strap on windscreen, connects to roll bars

Saw this in the back of an auto mag. Seems like it will do the trick. Its a strap on wind blocker that hooks onto the roll bar. They seem to have one made for the S2000. Has anyone purchased this or had any experience with this company. For $225 its not cheap, but if it works, itd be worth it.

Windbaffle

Edit: Just emailed them about the possibility of receiving any type of group buy pricing and pictures if they have any. This looks like to be the answer to windbuffeting that is more temporary than a larger windscreen in the middle.

Looks cheezy. I'd rather have messed up hair.

Well for you in GA. maybe. but here in Chicago we already have 45-50 degree nights, 60 degree days, its getting cold, I'd like to extend my top down season+heater as long as I can. Can't take the freezing head, ears, and shoulders.

I just don't like generic-fit products. I could probably build something better myself.

Look to Rick's Aero Screen and MajorHavoc's Headrest Windblocker for something that has a better OEM look. Both can be found on this page : http://www.ricks2k.com/products/aero.php

I'm looking for something more temporary, I think the rick screens look nasty for everyday use, not a fan of those tall windscreens. However this website states that the screen has been custom cut for the S.

Also I havent really heard great reviews about the rick screens. And that still doesnt solve the problem with the roll bar areas, even if you get the headrest blockers, and I'm not planning on getting Spods either. I'm thinking about this screen, because its all in one, and I can take it on off when I please, its simplified. I do love the wind in the summer, just not when its cold in the spring/fall.
