Default Windscreen

Dear all,
I want to build my car from scratch in composite but I have a problem with the windscreen. To be 100% free about the shape, I need a custom make winscreen, do you know any supply who could do an SVA approaved windscreen?
The second option is to cut an existing windscreen. Has anybody done it?
I know that it is possible to do it with a high pressure waterjet but will it pass the SVA test?
The third and last option is to use an existing windscreen but I don't want to do any compromise on the shape.
Thank you for your help
Best regards
Malric

the windscreen from a Stratos Replica has a nice, unique (?) shape. It's not full width, but good for a modern sportscar sort of look. They're quite expensive though.

edited: The Ultima has a similar shape, so scrap the unique bit
