Default Race Fairing or Smoked Wind Screen

Ok, here is the quesion I need help with: I am looking at replacing my current factory windscreen on my '95 Fountain and I have been told 2 different ideas. 1, replace the current smoked windscreen with a new but same look from factory windscreen. Or 2, replace the current smoked windscreen with a new white race fairing. What do you all think, keep the original look or go with a new look?? Help!!!!

I vote for the smoked plexiglass wind screen. my budy has one on his 27 and I would not trade it for the wind sheild or the race faring.

I have a 1997 fountain that came with the smoked wind screen. I replaced it with the race fairing, looks much cooler!! Keep us posted.

I'd update it, the race faring looks really clean.

Go with the fairing. It will update the boat, give close to the same protection and look really cool (which is all that matters anyway ) You can't see out of the smoked glass anyway so you are losing nothing there. Plus the glass will scratch and may break. You can also put a cool Fountian sticker on the fairing which looks cool also.
