Got one the same, only trouble it's a tight fit around the gutter sides, and all Beddies are different here due to repairs, and ofcourse does not fit Jumbo, the new one I have made the mould for has a inner skin and fits under the gutter along the window, and fits both models. But does look good :D

Yep will do, the visor has the same shape as I started out with the one above, I gave it to a mate to lay one up for himself, he applyed one layer of wax, no PVA or Gelcoat, Sh..t, got his visor out but did a bit of damange to the mould, repaired it and gave it to him to block down the repairs while I was away, still need to see if this has happened, will get it back and lay one up and post photo's, They go for $165.00 NZ, split mould so easy lay up.

Bas do they have vents (so the air escapes upwards) and are they strong enough to use without centre brace ?

Yep, no centre brace needed, as has inner skin, that fits along the 2inch strip of metal between the gutter and rubber, this inner skin has slots in it to let the air flow through, but can't been seen from the out side, tried it first with a slight gap in the middle but made a strange sound driving along the road as the wind past through it..........
