The screen looks very similar to ones produced by MAC#1 sportscars

That is a Mac Flyscreen but they don't make them for the Haynes.

Unfortunately the piece I used was supposed to be the final piece. At least I have a template fpor the next one.

I watched a guy heat forming some lexan screens and he pre heated the plastic in an oven then layed it on a shaped wooden plug. The stuff sort of glooped into shape and was allowed to cool. Then trimmed and polished it, these were only small so i dont know how you would get enough heat into a piece that big without a huge oven. Dont think you would get away with a heatgun.
