Flaps or windscreen
I'm up in the air if I should go with flaps or a windscreen on my 38 Scarab. I have a set of flaps off a top gun, that I am leaning toward installing, but I've read that guys that went from flaps to a windscreen, like the wind screen better. Personally, I like the idea of the flaps but I have no experience with either.

My Mistress had the flip up deflectors, then I had a Lipship Kit for my 1993 Top Gun windscreen, it was night and day. Made a Huge difference. much better function. I got the same kit for my Playboy, just better Wind Protection, and looks great. I am 6’5” tall too.

I dig the flaps but I guess I am just old school. I remember seeing my first cigs with the flaps and thought they were so cool. I did laugh at the comment about getting startled when the would flip up. I do remember that exactly happening to me. The wind screen has grown on me. I agree it works much better. It does help make a straight bottom look newer. The only thing I didn’t like was trying to go over it to reach the deck.....
