Can someone suggest ideas for aftermarket front fender or flyscreen? Maybe diy or mod another model?

I have an after market extended flyscreen for some long trips that I wont be using. Or you can get some plexiglass from home depot and make your own like I did with mine. I played with some shapes on cardboard then traced it onto the plexiglass and used a angle grinder with cut off disc to cut out the shape, then a heat gun to bend it to the curve I wanted and drilled some holes to match the factory mount. Then paint to any color you desire.

Heres the aftermarket flyscreen:

Heres the home made screen:

I never thought about plexiglass. The homemade one looks good too. I don't even have one to extend but I think the plexiglass may do the trick. I had tried with sheet metal but that was a mistake. Thanks.

I was thinking of getting a cheap maybe broken flyscreen and making a mold and fiberglass in or cf my own.
