windscreen/deflector

I have had a thought and was wondering if anyone on here has done or seen it before

I have an mk indy with a carbon mk aeroscreen, which does nothing at all to keep wind off you.
I would like to use the car without a helmet through the summer for gentle driving around the countryside.

my idea is to make some clear Perspex mini windscreens which will attach to the aeroscreen and point vertical, theres a nice flat edge to fasten them too.
I only want them to be small, but still enough to force the air away from my face so I can see

any idea if this would work?
and does anyone have any photos of it if its been done before?

im sure I saw an f1 car with it but cant find a pic now

A very small vertical lip will be massively dependent on speed, i.e. the pocket of still air behind it will be quite small below 60.

I found my aeroscreen was bearable up to 50-60 without a helmet.
