My brother used spray paint to tint his fornt wind-screen, Im thinking of buying aother OEM wind-screen and paintting it with spray paint. I found one at Oneidasuzuki.com for about $14 which to me sound like a pretty good deal?

This web-site is good if you drop you bike and have to pay out of your pocket, for the 2004 and up suzuki Gs500f.

Front upper cowling body $80.99
brake or clutch lever $8.99
Cowling under $96.99 (one side)
Fuel tank $479.99
Mirror $45.99
turn signal $18.99
Shifter $19.99
(Couldn't find the cowling for the rear of the bike or the rear break)

Last I knew, they were not for sale yet? I called about them over the Summer and said they are still in production or development or some crap. So, I dunno if a  :roll:  is in order, since they might not yet be available? They weren't for me!  :(

Or you can paint it black, as I did here (thanks to tdan553527 for the idea):

By the way, getting drunk and holding it up to your face is an optional step  ;)

Negative, captain. Two reasons:

1) I only painted the inside of the shield.
2) From what I gather, it's a dye more than a paint. So while it does sit on the surface, it also has bonded with the plastic and made it black.

But like aaronstj, what do I know; I'm just a nood.

Krylon Fusion. Looks like:



GI Joe's for $5.79. It should be at any home & garden store.

About every color is available.

No No, I was going to buy a OEM clear wind-screem and paint it like 2005-GS500-PDX. My brother did it to his 2003 honda 600rr and it came out looking pretty good.



mountindewGS

Are you sure they have them in stock? because alot of people said they order tinted screen and then they said they don't make them for the Gs500f. That alot of money too I mean the OEM wind-screen is $14 and the paint is like $5 to $10.

I just called exoticsportbike.com and the guy said another couple of weeks on the Zero Gravity windscreens. He said they haven't had any yet, so they aren't sold out, they just haven't yet gotten any to sell.
