Windscreen recommendations & sources?

Now that I'm about to get my new toy ('08 Z4si roadie w/extended leather) I need other goodies to go along with it. Any windscreen recommendations? I had thought a "green stripe windscreen" was standard equipment but didn't see it on the si std equipm list. Recommendations please? Thanks!

I've had both the mesh and now just bought the acrylic. I believe the acrylic blocks the wind better...but its really hard to compare. I'm happy with the acrylic.

You might want to search on the topic, as this has been discussed.

not sure if the acrylic type will work with the extended leather. Check Leatherz.com

I don't think the extended leather in the SI includes a wrap of the roll bars, does it? I thought that was only on the M.

155MPH, I think you're right. I mis-read and thought he bought a ///M.

The green stripe windscreen is your windshield, which has a green stripe in the glass at the top to reduce glare.

Just got home with my new toy--WOW! LOL green stripe windscreen! And no, the roll bars don't have leather wrap, that's just the M.
