How easy is this? Do I just take the screen off sand it down a bit and put a layer or 2 of black spray paint over it? Any input would help. Thanks guys

Don't sand it. Just use paint specifically for plastic and paint the inside of the screen. It's the same way you paint R/C car bodies, makes the finish perfect.

I am in love with spray-paint, does anyone else just love to spray-paint things?

well I just went to walmart and got some plastic spray paint...jet black...took that bad boy off and waaaaalaaaaa...turned out decent....enough to hold me off till i buy a better one i suppose.....gettin that biotch back on was a pain.....lost three of the rubber screw things underneath so the screws are in but they're not in the threads taking it to the shop tomorrow to have some work done anyways so i'll see wjat he can do about that but i dont think the screen will fly off when i'm riding
