Anyone know where I can order new canopies for my 07 Nordic Thor. I was referred to Aero or AG in Fontana from Nordic but they are having trouble getting the material in a timely manner and their quote was very high in my opinion. I’m assuming I’ll have to take my old ones off to have a mold made by whoever can do them. Any referrals would be great.

Idk who did the last ones in the Orion or the ones in the DCB but being they are both outsourced so can’t just use the automatic “well it’s DCB vs Orion” but the ones in the new boat are so crystal clear it’s amazing. Even with 12 years of surface scratches etc the clarity is awesome. Call down and ask Jessica up front or Eric they will help you out.

Kurt @ Acylifab Riverside makes the DCB / Howard windscreens and canopies. They are top quality, he makes our canopy for the 287 DECK and the distortion is zero. Right now his lead times are far out due to windscreen production.
Canopies are so labor intensive its crazy.

Orion- Made by dude who makes jet boat style windscreens. Quality materials obviously budget minded.

Mine are by Shields out of Texas, perfect and crazy expensive, not cheap but not ridiculous.

Did you get Kurt @ Acylifab right? Google gave me no results.

Are the existing ones broken or just scratches? Can the scratches be polished out?

I have a crack in my drivers side canopy. Been there since I bought it. Can’t look at it any longer
