Default Can't find bronze windshield

Trying to find a bronze windshield for MY 82 928. All local glass shops are telling me that green is the only color available. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm located on the third coast. 77979 HELP! I've Fallen and I can't get up!

You won't find a new bronze one easily. Sorry.

Good luck, and let me know if you find two.

I'm going to make money off my 928, and so will you.

Is that better?

If you click the heels of your ruby slippers together and say "There's no place like home" Three times than you will make money on your 1982 SUPERCHARGED INTERCOOLED POSITRACTION LEATHER FILLED 18' WHEEL TOO MUCH TO LIST MY WIFE IS GOING TO KILL ME IF I SPEND ANYMORE MONEY ON THAT THING, PORSCHE 928. Thats all I got to say about that.

If Roger had one, I'd have bought it. If he had two, he would have one... and so on.

So why not go with the green tint one?

How hidious would a green windshield look on a 928 with bronze glass and a platin metalic paint job? Any pics would be appreciated

Richard @ Prosource is good, but only has green. Price is great too!

Just put a green one in, I doubt you will find the other.

I know Roger doesn't have any. Heck, he'd have sold them the same day if he did.
