Default Forward windscreen fitting Slider

Just wanting to know a good method of fairing/ attaching the forward screen to the side of the fuse at the base of the roll bar. I believe it opens up here a bit as well to accomodate the sliding canopy.
Any pics of your build process please.

Default Windshield

If you mean the windshield, I clamped mine with a 2x2 each side. Also used ratchet straps. Photos on my blog Finishing page.
I did a one piece layup for the trim. It has a pocket for the slider skirt to fit. It will be bonded with Sika in a few days.
