no.... it will never look good or any kind of ok... this thing is ten times uglier than the halo! it is much to huge, much to ugly shaped - the front view is katastrophic!
Successful IndyCar Aeroscreen Test Completes at Indy

The first screen without the halo inside looked way better. This is ugly and its RedBulls fault.
But a new car is coming soon... so it will be fixed for sure.

I much preferred the first screen too, but I believe Indycar was not able to achieve the strength rating they were targeting, realized they needed a reinforcing frame, and reached out to Red Bull. I can't blame Red Bull for that
I am hopeful that it will be better integrated into the car for 2021 but I am not sure what they can do to visually work around the height of this thing!
Sorry for the bad shot. And the utter disrespect to our friend, the hairy ant eater.
No way around it, that thing is a complete embarrassment, I think they came from the same mother.

iRating is just a number
I like this a lot more than the halo since it has full frontal protection. Just one step closer to fully enclosed cars.
its just too steep looking, make it 20cm stretch to the front, it looks better
If they're just gonna go nearly closed cockpit, just go hog wild, bolt back on the Karbashians again and all the other garbage all over it they had and put the screen on. Thats what you can do with an ancient 8 year old Dallara chassis thats beat into the ground, you can just bolt stuff on it and push it out the door, like Mr. Potato Head.
Its so sad what these people have done to the sport, its a disgrace.
To think what we had before, glad they 'fixed' indycar.

Just have to say I find it really funny how people said the halo looks ugly and that a screen would've been way better looking. And now people say the halo looks better than a screen 
Of course either one could be made to look better. Maybe that would also compromise their safety, dunno.
Also for those saying this is driving people away from the sport.. You think it's looks or safety that is driving people away? Hell, even poor racing isn't driving people away from F1!

These things look pretty awesome. anything for safety honestly. Honestly surprised to see that people are hating on indy, which has some of the best racing in motorsport.
What is turbolance?
I'm trying to figure out which I prefer: The IndyCar or this:

Why not just bin the WHOLE thing and move forward to proper tin top prototypes instead.
It looks horrible. Looks old fashion on top of beeing ugly. I prefer the halo solution by miles.

imo that here would be just enough protection don't you think?
