  • Acrylic for Glass?

    Not Engine related, but I dont really know where else to post it since it is
    performance related.

    I want that kind of hatch glass. What is typically used? Acrylic?
    That would take off quite abit of weight. And it doesnt look bad!

    Polycarbonite/Lexan

    The big down site is it scratches easily and gets foggy over time. You would be re-polishing it at least once a year on a summer-only car...

      What if you clear coat it? Maybe that can help.

      :?: does it get fogged up because of UV?

        Lexan is definatly what you want as it resists scratches and shattery crack effect.

        At least over plexi

        Terrible idea putting those wheels on...
