Chrome Windscreen

Is there a company that makes a chrome windshield for the 6th gen VFR?

I looked everywhere online and couldn't find one. I went with the smoke GIVI. I may apply chrome window tint to the factory screen, since it's just taking up space in my garage.

I thought Powerbronze made irridium screens for the 6th gen.

Not really chrome, but perhaps close enough.....

There was anther company in the UK that makes screens and headlight covers as well. Can't remember the name at this time tho.

Perhaps someone else knows????

Hopefully this helps

Be warned that chrome screens create a lot of heat. I melted my gauge cluster on my old busa and was really pissed about it. If you find one be aware of the fact it can happen quickly.

Just curious, why would a chrome screen create any heat? Wouldn't it reflect all of the light energy instead of absorbing it?

I've never heard of that with a chrome screen, but I know it can happen with a double bubble screen.

I guess in that case it would be a good idea to black out the underside of the chrome screen prior to installation.

There are places that do plastic chroming. Look at all those 100% chromed out 'busas, etc.

Find a stock screen on EBAY and send it off to be chromed.
