Used Scotch tape. It's very thin. I offset the tape so I could wrap it around the plastic to create the metal frame with its slot for the glass.

Painted the wiring with silver paint. I'm holing a thin strip of tape that was also painted silver. The tape will be used as the frame around the "glass" windshield

Copper wire and plastic tubing at the ends. Notice the curved plastic to fit around the wire.

Final shape on both sides. The "frame" sits on the top of the fuselage nice and tight.

Head-on view. Notice the left side appears too wide. Will start trimming down.

As W.C. Fields once said: "This is only the beginning folks..." Rough fitting.
