It looks cool. I love the angle. Somebody bent the windshield frame clamp bracket on purpose or by accicent. Either way I love the Italian Sports Car look.. I wish I could park my Things under tarps and indoors and I would love a windshield angle like that.. Not stock... |

You can bend the windshield body retainer brackets on the front dash and make that windshield angle. I do like it.. Very sporty.. |

Back in my Jeep I had no top for years, as long as you keep moving you stay pretty dry. It's those stop lights that get you so wet. |

Perhaps that one poster that had the problem of his top being 2 inches too short could perform this modification (windshield) to correct his problem!
But then the side curtains would need to be modified. |

I would say thats from too many people over the years grabbing onto the windshield frame when they get in and out of the car. Good luck getting a top and windows on that car. |
