- Mmm, friendly on the phone, but just a bit short. I know they were probably busy, so that's okay. The product came very promptly, but I had to have someone else install it because I just wasn't getting it and didn't want to wreck something. Once it was on the vehicle, I drove it around and could definitely notice a difference, but there just wasn't a huge change. Maybe windscreens aren't meant to be that effective, but oh well.
- Easy to buy from and have great products. I've only had mesh windscreens and I like them quite a bit. I've never compared them to lexan or acrylic, which I suppose might be better. At any rate, I enjoy the way it cuts down on both wind and sound. Thanks Adamesh!
- As soon as I opened the box I realized that the product completely paled in comparison to products at half the cost. I other words, the value stinks on this product. It performs up to par with many my friends windscreen, which was $40 more than this one, but the durability is wanting in more than just a few areas. We’ll see how it goes, but it’s thinner and inferior to my buddy’s windscreen.
- Decent product and performs really well. I thought the cost was fair when compared to the how well the product works. I would consider buying from again in the future if I ever get another convertible.
- Bought the product, but had a hard time getting a hold of them. It took them three days to answer my email, too. The performance was mediocre after I got the product, too. I will say that the price is very reasonable. It won’t break the bank.
- Saved my pocket book from the green monster, but golly it didn’t work very well at all. The finish was a bit scratched when I got it, too. Whether that was from shipping or from a bad finish job is beyond me. What I do know is that I won’t buy from them again, even despite their bargain prices. There’s a difference between dollar stores and department stores. Same goes here.
- Good product. At $80, I had a decent windscreen for my Crossfire.
- What happened to the Big-Q (quality)? I know you get out what monetary funds you put into a product, but there has to be something better than a made-in-china like product. Overall, I give it 3/5 stars for price and good customer service, but the production quality just isn’t worth the cheaper cost.
- Got the wind blade fast and with no hassles. It was flawlessly constructed and looked awesome on the car. I could really notice a difference in the car when driving, too. I won’t ever drive with my top down again if I can help it. My ride is much more comfortable and fun with the top down and this blade on.
- Stops air like a truck, but costs only a fraction. I got the product as a birthday gift from my wife, since she knows I love driving my Crossfire to the hospital each day. I am not sure really how it stops air that good, because the design is a little on the poor side, but overall it does the job well, and I have enjoyed it immensely. Thanks Jay!
- Wow, I kept my checkbook intact compared to the last windscreen purchase I made. If only the windscreen stayed intact, too. I reached back fast one day and cracked it much easier than I thought was possible. That was a bit disappointing, but it held up for over a year. I ended up getting another one from a friend who ordered hers and mine at the same time.
- Price is right. The wind “blade” works great. Great performance and a great price = a great deal. Thanks KWB.
- The good:
The screen works really well, and I can definitely notice a huge difference in the wind, noise, and flutter of items in the car. The quality is also decent, too.
The bad:
The product is too expensive to be called competitive on the market with other screen companies. I have found many other, much more highly spoken of companies for a fraction of the cost.
- Service was kind and prompt. The wind blade arrived in excellent condition and worked on my car well. I have started driving my Crossfire hours more into the evenings than I normally did before I purchased it. I give it a 4/5 for performance and a 3/5 for price. I would recommend this company to potential buyers who have the money.
- I thought the price was unfair compared to the construction I have gotten from the company. There are a lot of other cheaper alternatives with a better amount of quality than this. If you want to pay $220 for an OK windscreen, be my guest, but my advice is to check elsewhere for a better deal, they do exist. Windblox and TopDown are both better companies than this.
- The product works great, but it was pricey. I am sure that with the amount of money that I paid them, they could at least put in a little extra cost and material into the making of this, too. Whether they are cheap or are satisfied with the product they make is unclear, but I they could do a little better, to be honest. Check around for a better deal before you lock yourself into this company. It might be worth it.

- Great and effective at stopping the wind, but no options are available for tinting, etc, so it was a letdown for me. The price is also a bit higher than I wanted to pay, and you can only buy through their dealers. Despite their shortcomings, I enjoy my Crossfire much more now, and I would highly suggest them for their effectiveness.
- For those who are purchasing their first windscreen, this is definitely not the way you want to go. It is much more expensive than most other windscreen companies, and they have no option between Acrylic and Lexan, which is very important when buying a windscreen. I couldn’t even find what material they used on their website, but purchased it anyway. I still don’t know what it is, but I do know that the value of the purchase and the cost was very unbeneficial to me.
- Stops air dead, but was a bit pricey. The material is durable, and it mounts very nicely on my crossfire. Definitely a great wind stop.
- I have to give it a good 5/5 stars for how effective it is. It’s my second windscreen for a second car. It comes pretty close to what I had before. It was definitely more expensive than the last windscreen I had, though, so it’s not good for a budget. If that’s not what you are worried about, though, then it does the job well for a price.
- I purchased a tinted windscreen from TopDown a few months ago. I have never used a windscreen that was so big. It worked like a charm, however, and it’s done a marvelous job from day one. It has “winglets” on it, which effectively help block wind coming from the sides. The price, for the unit, is very fair and I would recommend in the future.
- Does an amazing job at stopping air movement in the cockpit, although the winglets are slightly “dorky” in my humble opinion. Despite that, it doesn’t really detract from the appearance of the car at all, and it worth the money I put into it. The only real downside is the size, which I thought was a little hard to work with.
- Installation was fairly simple, and I had it on in less than 30 minutes. It comes off fairly easily, too. That’s a big plus for me, because I like to be able to put the top on and not worry about leaving the windscreen on (although they say you can). I have been pleased with my purchase so far, and drive with the top down even with temperature about 55 degrees outside.
- Great windscreen, excellent coverage, and super effectiveness! Thanks TD.
- Works great, but was too expensive for me to really say it was worth it. If look around for even five minutes, you’ll see just as good of windscreens for about $100. That’s what I call a windscreen on a budget. This one still does a good job, though.
- It’s about midrange as far as price goes, but it is very efficient at blocking almost all the wind from entering the cockpit. I was pretty impressed with this, because many companies claim that theirs will block “40%, 50%, or even 60%.” This one blocks much more than that. I would say closer to 80%.
- Great windscreen, but not exactly at a bargain price. I only went with this company because they had good ratings. Was not disappointed, but still wished for something cheaper.
- There are only two companies that come out on the top, and I’ve bought from both of them. I’ll admit, that between the two, this one is more expensive by about $80. I personally think the cheaper one works better, but this one is a close second. If you like the full-bodied design, than this one will work for you. If you want better effectiveness for cheaper, shop around a bit.
- For the USA buyer, this is a headache. I found them online through Google, and it was much more expensive when I went to buy the windscreen because the currency conversion was so different from GBP to USD. The windscreen works fairly well, however, and I enjoyed getting a UK product. I would suggest this to those who don’t mind necessarily paying a bit more. Delivery was fairly decent, too.
- Purchased screen from Ireland. Works great. Deliveries are fast.
- The Tuning Shop has a very nice online catalogue, which I appreciated. After selecting the windscreen for my vehicle (Crossfire), it took only a few days to arrive. I analyzed the windscreen carefully, and have found it to work very effectively on my car. I would recommend them to car owners who need a good screen for a reasonable price.
- Great windscreen at a great price. It works awesome, and the shipment was fast coming from the UK (I live in Canada). I was very pleased to get this and it has made my drive at least 100% percent better compared to what it used to be previously. Overall, the price was a little expensive, but I think that for most crossfire owners, this shouldn’t be extremely difficult to deal with.
The mounting system for this windscreen sucks pretty badly. It wobbles horrible during use and once I get past 70mph. Now, if you stay below that speed, you are most likely going to be fine, but there are much better options out there than a $200 windscreen that looks like it will fall off at every fast corner or during a strong wind.
- It looks great on my car, but the clear straps hide the truth of the matter, a shoddy workmanship. Period.
- Great windscreen, but the price is a little high. Overall works pretty nicely on my Crossfire, which I use for a lot of town and highway driving. It is my main commuter car (10 miles a day), and the car I prefer to take on extended trips, as well. The only difficulty I have had is the mounting system, but I fixed it by slipping cardboard in between my car and the windscreen.

- The windscreen I got from them works awesome! I bought the acrylic windscreen with tinting, and it’s been a pleasure to use through and through. I drive my car 50 miles a day, and it has been perfect for the commute and just general driving around town, etc. Definitely a plus for driving any vehicle and an awesome addition to any personal shop/car hobbyist.
- Ordered the windscreen and I received it about a week later. So far it’s been the best thing I have spent my money on, except for maybe gas. It is relatively inexpensive, too, which is more than I can say about many other companies that also offer windscreens. About $100 for the windscreen and it does a very respectable job.
- Awesome windscreen and awesome price. Thanks Windblox!
- Overall, a great windscreen for a fairly decent price. The only thing I don’t like is the mounting system they use, but it’s a small compromise for a very effective windscreen. Most other windscreens charge through the nose for something even close to the same quality. I can’t afford that, and Windblox offers more options. I personally purchased their lexan option, lighting, and a satchel. So far I have not been at all disappointed, and I anticipate many more miles spent driving my vehicle in comfort.
- The windscreen I received works perfect on my Crossfire. I purchased another one a year back, and it gave me a lot of problems on the installation. This one took a couple minutes!
- The leader in value, quality, and service! I firmly believe that. My windscreen took only a few days to arrive and was on my car in no time. The material they use is thicker than others I have seen on the market, and it stops wind like none other. All smiles from this happy owner. Thanks, Kent
- Great windscreen and a great value. The options they offer are very nice, too. I don’t think I have even seen a company that has offered the same amount of options that Windblox does. It does great at performance, and remains nice and snug on the car even at 100mph+. From a convertible enthusiast’s perspective, definitely a great way to go.
- Would definitely recommend to drivers. I make a commute 4 days a week into my retail store, and I have to look sharp for business. This windscreen ensures that and keeps me looking great. Keep up the good work Windblox.
- Makes my ride even sweeter. I got it at Christmas time so I couldn’t use it right away, but when spring rolled around, I found just how good it really works. There’s a buddy and I who do some cruising/racing on back roads. We’ll get a cam and send you guys before/after pics.
- Best windscreen company, hands down. Thanks for the windscreen, folks!

- Fair product pricing and excellent handling are both pluses for this company. I’ve worked with both them and another company with similar pricing, and both have been an excellent addition to the toys I own with my Crossfire. If you want a good windscreen at a fair price, this is probably the place you are looking for.
- I went from commuting from June through September to commuting April through October with this windscreen. It really does make the ride free from a lot of the wind and noise that driving on the highway can generate. The only thing I really wish they would change is the cost. Right now, you pay for the performance, but they could cut a few dollars to make it a bargain.
- Extended my drives far into the evening with the windscreen on. Thanks.
- I really dig this windscreen, but I'm having some problems with it giggling about in my car. I'm afraid that it's starting to wear against the deck, so I may need to replace. If I can solve this, then it's a stellar windscreen. This company also provides top-shelf service.
- Works like a dream on my car, but took a big chunk out of my pocket book. I know of a friend who bought from them as well, and theirs is also an excellent windscreen. But they complain about the price, too. That’s really my only problem with the company.
- Very easy to work with and get a hold of. They answered their phone all three times that I called, and I got my windscreen in the mail very quickly. I tried it on the next day and took my car for a spin. The difference is stunning! If only they provide you with a date, too.
- The windscreen works great, no buts about it. I really can’t complain about anything with the company. The cost was fair, the product works perfect.
- Good product, atrocious price. I bought another one two weeks later for a colleague. It not only worked the exact same, it was 2/3 the cost. That was a rip-off for me, and I wished I would have saved $60 on the purchase. Check around for windscreen manufacturers and your model of car. You can most likely find something much cheaper with the same value than this company.
- The price is just ok here. I bought from them about a year ago, but lost it after a move. I later looked for another one, and purchased it online for about $90. It works even better and fits nicely.
- Had it a month and threw it out after buying a new one. Installation was a headache for me, and in a moment of impatient, I put a small crack in it and scratched the windscreen. I was very frustrated trying to install it and didn’t feel it was user friendly at all. Maybe they could make it better fitting in forthcoming models.
- Great design and great windscreen, but scratches just with normal handling. I'm bummed.
- Wow, I thought it would be a lot better of a value for paying $500 to get it to the US. It definitely wasn’t, despite the very nice tempered glass. If you can, I would definitely say that you should stay domestic and definitely pay attention to the ratings. I can’t give these guys more than 5/7 for pretty much anything just because the price is so high, it makes it completely not worth it. Sorry. . .
- Works great and looks great. The glass has great logos on it, and it fits really well on the car. The only thing I can really complain about would be the expense for those purchasing in the U.S. I currently live in Germany for work, and it wasn’t too bad, but I checked out the conversion on the price afterward, and it would have been quite a lump of money for shipping to the Americas.
- ood windscreen. Well Made. Live in europe and is good price.

- Does a great job and is a smashing deal, but service was a pain, and I felt like a product myself. Maybe they were having a bad day, or maybe they just didn’t want business, but I wouldn’t recommend just because of the service I received. Take your business to someone who cares.
- The mounting works nicely and lets you install the product very quickly and efficiently. I definitely don’t mind it too much, and the windscreen does a fairly good job. The precision that went into the cut was also very impressive. For the money, it’s a bargain, and I would suggest it.
- Excellent service and product for an excellent price. It is probably one of the best bargains in the windscreen market. The only downside is the mounting system they utilize, which I think could be improved just a bit to withstand more abuse. I like it, however, and it does the job I need it to. For a flat rate product, it’s pretty darn good.
- Nice windscreen and a really smooth cut on the edge. That’s what I like to see.
- The price is good, the quality is not. I was expecting a “fancier” product, if you will. Their products are pretty simple and down to earth, but not for a serious driver. The quality is ok but isn’t very rigid, and that’s not good enough. I would recommend for the commuter, not for a sports car enthusiast.
- Great windscreen at a crazy price. They are obviously produced quickly, and the design reflects this a little. The performance and price is still pretty good, though, and I have enjoyed commuting in my Crossfire much more than I have before. Just beware of the mounting system. I wouldn’t want to hit my windscreen too hard for fear it would crack…
- The windscreen installed very easily and quickly. It works well, and I have driven it in very windy weather without a problem. It even worked fairly well with a crosswind, too. You probably can’t find a price that low anywhere else.
