Re: upper RR screen

I had the same problem with my screen being broken and Houston not 
having one.

Although I did not make any to offer, I have an idea that may work 
for you. I found a local race car builder who fabricates a lot of 
his race car body panels out of aluminum. I took him my warped, 
broken piece and he was easily able to fabricate a replacement. Now 
it did not look 100% original but it worked out great. You could 
probably go to anyone who does metal work and get this done. Cost me 
$50.00

Just a suggestion.
