Zero Gravity is the company that provides the windscreen to Airtech for the R1 conversion kit they make. I emailed Zero Gravity and they responded with:
"Dillon,
The part number that you are looking for is a 15-853-XX (XX-depending on the color you choose this number will change) we sell this screen with no holes in clear, light smoke, and dark smoke. This screen is in stock for all three colors."
The price she quoted me was $79.95 for the Dark Smoke. I'm not sure on the prices for the other colors but i'm sure they are similar. At least this info means that we dont have to be a slave to Airtech and can get the windscreen from Zero Gravity.

I thought I would mention that the windscreen comes without holes drilled, but this is typical with most of their racing type windscreens. the plastic is also a little thicker and more durable, and follows track regulations.

Z,
Just be sure you have the CORRECT type of drill bit for making the holes a standard ground wood or metal drill bit will shatter you new screen ( unless you have Devils luck )

What I've done in the past is a standard metal bit run backwards.

You can buy 'acrylic' drill bits..they have a tiny center pilot, at craft or hobby stores
