Avon aeroscreen
I have decided its about time to fit my aerscreen after a month of having no screen.
Its the tiger aeroscreen, I have two metal brackets, a piece of rubber and some perspex. I was wondering what the best way of attaching the perspex
to the brackets was?
Cheers

Two ways - you can either just bend a couple of brackets from some ali, bolting one side to the upright and the other to the screen (this is what I
did). Or you can get some ali channel (similar to the windscreen surround) and mount that to the uprights, and silicon the screen into them (which I
think is what Tiger do).
Cheers,
James

Hi,
I cut mine using a jigsaw with a fine toothed blade and cut carefully to the outside of the line.
I then used a series of grades of wet&dry to radius the edge. Finally I used a rubbing compound and finished it with anti swirl polish pro. The
end result is really good and looks like it has been moulded to shape. It does take some time but it is definately worth it!
I secured the screen in using to cut down pieces of ali channel that Tiger supply for full screen. I bolted this to the uprights and bonded the
aeroscreen using pu adhesive(Like tiger do)
Good luck!
