Thanks! Looks like I need to reshape the bottom V for the SG version, but other than that I think I'm good. Can't wait to get started.

You can do that but Its not required for acceptance.

What do you guys think about this option?

The visor is clear and can be mounted to the helmet. It's also fog resistant.
The red film mounts to the backside using the same hardware that mounts the visor. I'm not sure if its doable, but if so, what's everyone's opinion.

Right! I was thinking the red visor was more like a film. Sounds like I was mistaken. Haha.
