I am under impression that the kit I bought comes with a windsheild, as it was rendered on all the pictures of the 2014 bodywork. So, now I am just waiting for everything to be shipped to me "during the first week of February".

The windshield is a new option. It is not part of the original kit. When I ordered my kit I specifically looked at what the kit came with. It had no mention of a windshield. I would love to be wrong about it and get a free one but that just isn't going to happen. I hope you get your body panels soon, I know Downing has picked up the pace.

I'm going to copy Steadfast's windshield temporarily, just to please the CHP. After that, it comes off. Freeway travel will definitely require a helmet!

This is the windshield that is currently being built, for those that haven't seen it:

My body panels are supposed to arrive in a few days I will let you know if there is a windshield with the panels.

I can't find windshields anywhere here: exomotive.com/store/

Yes, that is because they are in their final stages. My chassis is due to ship out soon (its being built right now) and Kevin said the windscreen would not be available yet to ship with my kit and he would let me know on the price.

Ok, I passed the CHP inspection, windshield is the key.

^What did you end up doing to pass? I copied Geoff's windshield and said to officer that my car looks exactly the same as Geoff's car did when it passed the inspection.

How can UPS get small to regular size packages to me without fail (on an increasingly regular basis as this build progresses, I might add) through the worst of weather, yet continually lose large items like frames, bodywork, ?
Amazing, and not in a good way!
