Default Shield/Mirrors help!

Waz up!
Anybody suggestions on replacement brand windshield & mirrors for my 98 F3 Smokin Joe's?
My shield is the old original & the mirrors are fine but big & outdated.
I would appreciate any input.

Just be careful with the chrome sheilds.. my buddy put a black chrome Sportech on his f4i, and the first day he left it in the sun, his gauge cluster got melted. the back of the shield acted like a magnifying glass, and melted the outer bezel.. Also, I have a friend with a 600RR and his gauges are all messed up from the same brand and type.. It melted the needle on the tach, and it's bent now..

As long as the back of the shield is black, there shouldnt be any probs.. These sheilds in question are somewhat see-thru, and have a bright chrome backside, and a colored chrome outside.. I had a red-chrome Sportech on mine, and had the black back side, with no probs..
