We have never been a company that draws up a design, cuts it out with a jigsaw, sands down and wraps some rope or Velcro straps around it. (we’ve actually seen this.)

Crossfire owners should be offered only top quality work. Many thanks to everyone for the wonderful feedback on our original version. Although we feel that the version 1 provides maximum blockage of wind turbulence and is a perfected design, we also know that options are always good for consumers.

We know that our custom laser etching and illumination has always provided roadster owners with the WOW effect, but we also know that durability and effectiveness is always first. There are already full size options that are available on the market so we fully intend on going above and beyond with our design.

I promise to give you all the expected release date just as soon as it’s final. You can rest assured that it will be worth the wait!

Also, To MAX – I am never offended in business. I appreciate your initiative and willingness to help provide this forum with other options. My hat is off to you.

Once again your professionalism shines through.
I built and installed ion beam accelerators for 25 years and had to work with, what I thought, was the pickiest group of people on the planet-physicists. I was wrong, Crossfire owners are. And I'm one of them! Egad!
Please PM me when you are ready to unveil your new design? Thanks.
I plan to fab mine in the next 2 weeks for the Tail of the Dragon GTG.

Thanks,
Max

Re: A Different Windblocker

Do these things really make that much difference - or they simply cosmetic?

Chris,
Do you have any hair on your head? How do you feel about yelling? What about strong winds blowing into your ears? If none of this matters, are you alone and hope to impress a lady friend with a ride in your amazing new wonderful XF?
Yea in makes a difference - the major problem with owning a XF isn't the tens of thousands you dished out to get the thing, or the insurance bill or the gas price, but the extras you will want! And in what order.
