Glare Shield Eyebrow?

[Av8r3400]

The original builder of the Mangy did the same thing, cutting the fiberglass flush with the panel. I used the same carpet for the glare shield that I used on the rest of the interior. I cut it 4" long so that I could fold it over on itself for a 1-1/2 lip and 1/2" attached to the underside of the fiberglass.

This lip is flexible, yet rigid enough to hold position. It really serves no purpose but looks nicer than just a flush edge, IMO.

So, I ordered a new glare shield from kitfox just so I could have an overhang on my model III panel. I received it yesterday and was comparing it to my original. It does not appear to be very close (much larger and windshield attach area seems different.) I would assume they sent me one for a model IV as they do not really support the model III. Does anyone know if the model IV should be the same as the model III one or did they possibly send me one for a SS7? Would like to know before I start modifying it. Thanks

Bluebird, I think the 4 one should be the same as a 3. Post a picture of it and I'll dig out my 3 glare shield and compare it.

If it’s 4” wider it’s probably for an SS7

A 4 would be deeper than a 3, as the 4 have more windscreen "rake"

Here is a pic. Don’t know without being farther along if it will work

Definitely not for a 7SS
