I'm realizing how popular my vac-form windscreen are and I want to know from you all, what kits need windscreen replacements. What kits have disgusting thick windscreens that desperately need a nice thin clean replacement?
Any scale....

MPC 1/20 Turbine; MPC 1/20 McLaren M8B & D; maybe AMT 1/25 McLaren (I know, I know, but there are a LOT of them out there, I'd like to build a fleet of McLaren Indy cars and can't afford Kevin's kits for all of them, plus Michael's kit is currently OOP). I'm sure there are some of the early 1/20 Tamiya F1 kits that could use better, more scale windscreens as well.
PS - The McLaren M8B windscreen was done in 1/24 for the Accurate Miniatures kit and is a HUGE improvement over the kit one. Chevron did a bunch of 1/12 scale F1 windscreens, but they are OOP now and I also picked up a couple for the 1/20 M23, can't remember who or where.

What about the 1/32 Revell Snaptite Indycars? I know interest and sales can dictate a lot of what you guys offer in our niche hobby and thatβs ok. I make what I canβt buy when itβs not available. Iβve felt this kit was pretty decent and a lot of liveries could be made from 1990-1992. The windscreen for this kit is pretty thick for the scale. Likely because of the production process. Regardless, thanks for throwing the question out there.

Since I did the βLap 198β 1989 diorama, I plan to do Arieβs pass over Rahal from 1990 and the 1992 finish at the line using this kit. So I would buy at least 3.

Thank you for the ideas. I will look into them.
I really don't care how bad or good the kit is as I've cone to realize people buy these windscreens no matter what.
