Are they shipped flat?
Or are the molded to conform to the curve of the fairing?

I see a lot out there that you have to form (bend) yourself...

They look just like this, out of the cardboard.

I have the 10" lite tint and it's great for touring and riding in cold weather. They also cut custom sizes. I want to get a 7.5" dark tint for the summer. I will be able to look over the 7.5" shield.

dang guys...i've read alot of these windshield reviews lately but it seems like this halfmoon windshield has the best reviews out of all of them.

i was actually contemplating ordering some hogtunes speakers to put in when my bike gets here but it sounds like these shields may kill two birds w/one stone.

Default Hogtunes and shield

I just added 4 speakers from Hog tunes, hard wired my zumo, ran auxiliary cable behind the fairing and added an 11" lite bronze shield yesterday, but it's been raining or snowing ever since. I can't wait to see how it sounds and check the wind/sight difference.

I believe my chrome strip came with new screws (chrome) and they work fine with the half-moon on mine. Mine is a 10inch MAR and it has been great, and I have not noticed any flexing at highway speeds. Be careful getting a dark tint if you are going to look through it and ride much at night.
