I'm glad Florida does not have the front plate requirement.

California does but mine is removable.

I do drive around when it's cool-er-ish with all the windows up, heater on, heated wheel/seats on hi, it's amazingly warm - but people look at you like your crazy Hahaha, I actually had this one older lady in traffic recently, rolled down her window, said, "Oh that's a beautiful car, but aren't you cold?" I said, "No mam, everything is heated so it's actually really warm, and I still get a great view" (It was a beautiful day, can't imagine having the roof up on a day like that, even if it's a touch chilly).

I knocked around the idea of a wind screen, but I use the back seats pretty frequently, and didn't want something else to fiddle around with just to use the car (i.e., I like to minimize my hassles).

When i had my 2017 Vert I tried out both the Love The Drive and the Plexi Glass Wind Restrictor. The first one I tried was the Plexi Glass... it allowed you to mount the unit on the back of the front passenger seat head rest posts. I did not like the mounting hardware that came with it, screws were too small and required an allen wrench; did not want to take it on and off. The biggest gripe was the fact that it still left air flow through the center console area which then ran right down by your feet. I also purchased mine with a etched pony logo which ended up blocking my rear view significantly.
The LTD unit was really great, loved it from the start, very effective wind blockage even with the windows down. Added bonus of covering your rear seats if you wanted to place items back there with the top down. You can fold the unit down while installed if you want more air on a very hot day. It was also very easy to put in and out. I left the lower seat clips attached and then just unclipped the plastic harness which is attached to the unit itself. I could do it in under 4 minutes by myself. The only draw back is that you cannot have passengers in the back seat. I have met very few people including my kids that enjoyed a ride in the vert in the back seat at high speeds.

Here is a detailed review and pics if anyone is interested. (page 4 of my previous build journal)

Holy hell, agree 1000%, fantastic photos!

I need to go check my fender lips to see if there is any rubber on them. Boy! That is close! I didn't hear or feel anything rubbing.

Those guys out there taking pics have to be making a killing. They have photographers set up in the turns along the highway, then the next day you can go to their website and can buy their photos for $6 each. No telling how many hundreds of pics they sell. Killboy.com has an actual visitor center set up out there which is really neat.

That's the best $6 you'll ever spend on your car.

Here's our Mustangs. They're both still in winter storage so I'm needing some nice weather soon.

Great photos, but that's because the car looks __kick__ass__. It's so well put together, love the stance and how it looks squatting into turns.

Sheltered in place! Weekly warm up.

Pic from late last fall. Still waiting for spring here. I know the top is up, but I just like the angle and the reflections. I find it very hard to get a good reflection pic of a white car.

That 04 is beautiful and exactly what I was looking for last summer. Then I made the "mistake" of going by carmax to see a '15 they had. Then the wife said why not look newer! Ended up with an '18 EcoBoost for my DD and couldn't be happier.
