Need Pics of CDC or Revolution Sport Bar W/GM Windscreen?

Hey Guys,

Anyone here have pics of either a CDC or Revolution brand sport bar with the GM windscreen installed together? If you could post a couple pics, that would be wonderful!

Thanks!

I have the revolution sports bar.
I know that the problem is the GM or most wind screens will not go up all the way as they hit the back of the bar at an angle.
You can pull it up but not all the way and it just looks funny.
I would have thought that either of the sports bar companies should have made a wind screen that fit on the back side of the bar, now that would work and look awesome.
There was a picture on this site with one installed on a revolution and it looked funny, the owner ended up selling it because of this.
If you find anything that fits and looks good please let us know.

I prefer the Revolution style over the CDC, but, I am disappointed to hear that the factory OEM windscreen does not work with it. Is the Revolution bar even available anymore?

sikodg got the last one.

He got it without templates or instructions.

So I emailed him mine.

Let us know if you find out otherwise.

I believe the two guys that owned Revolution went their separate ways. I thought I heard one of the guys have sourced out to another Co. to have the Sport bars made along with some of the other products they produced for our Camaros, but haven't heard if this is true or not.

I did a search on Google images http://www.amazon.com/Convertible-20.../dp/B00HRGWWW4 on Camaro Sports Bars and found out the "Love The Drive" windscreen WILL work with the CDC sports bar.
Is the GM version of this wind screen the same design? It's too bad it won't work with the Drop Top Sports Bar from Revolution, however if this is no longer made, it doesn't really matter.
I myself like the styling of the one from Revolution. I think it flows better with the rest of the car and looks like it came on the car from the factory. JMO

The "Love to drive" windscreen is made for the CDC bar and is slightly different than the OEM screen. I'm in agreement with you on the styling of the Revolution bar. It is bigger and more muscular looking and flows better with the lines of the Camaro than the CDC bar. JMO also.

I'm thinking the GM windscreen will work with the CDC sports bar as well.
Check out the video link at 1:50 it shows the GM version installed with the CDC sports bar.

Interesting Bowtie. Let's see if anyone will chime in and let us know if their OEM windscreen works with their CDC bar. There is another thread currently about someone just installing a CDC bar. Maybe I'll shoot a post over there. I'll let you know if I hear anything.

In the video it looks like it fits right under.
It looks great on that sports bar.
But in this post in the pictures it can be installed behind the seats but not flush and under the sports bar. Maybe its a different wind screen.
I love my revolution bar it looks so much beefier and like it could have been an add on option

check out this link.

I agree with you AMMUSCLE, but, I think it will be hard to find one.

My factory windscreen works with the CDC bar. It appears from the video that they wedged the screen under the bar. However, mine sits just in front of the bar and not completely flush with it.
