That's Amerisport, not Auto Exotica.   Marino Perna (Pantera East) used to 
market Kirk's products as well.   I really thought the raised screens were 
exceptionally well-designed and well-made.

Part of the challenge is that the stock screen size/shape changed several 
times during production, so making an aftermarket unit that will fit all the 
cars is next to impossible.
