Question How to Tint Triumph Windshield?

Ok, Maybe I'm crazy here, but lately I've been thinking a lot about finding a way to tint my TBird's Summer Screen windshield... Anybody here got any ideas on the best process to do this with a piece of polycarbonate?

Cool

Ok, so I guess there are not a lot of folks that have thought about trying this with their windshield?

I had a Slipstreamer SS20 tinted windshield on one of my other bikes. Being short, and having to look through the 'shield after dark I lost my "closeup" vision through it at night, I wear sun glasses or a tinted visor so they can come off when needed.
