Lexan window kit for street use

[vinz68]

Mine is clear as glass. The windshield does flex a little at high speeds. Nothing to complain about.

I got my lexan from Clear One. Think its been 6 years now. So far so good and no flex at speeds. It's form fitted but comes 2" oversized. Not sure I would want it on a street car only because I've heard the sun can do a number on it. I dont have wiper blades so I cant comment there and the car gets out pretty much only for track days.

thanks for the responses guys!

it seems like most people prefer the percy's. They require trimming to fit. I noticed the harwood windsheild and windows can be purchased as an exact fit, no trimming required. I like the sound of that. I am capable of trimming but I would rather save the time for other things. Those harwood windows of course come at a higer cost...

am I missing anything as far as trimming goes? do the cut to fit pieces not fit?

they are left oversize for the customer to fit as needed. it also adds cost when someone else trims to fit. What percy's has over the others is the coatings on them that prevent scratches.

On average how much weight are you guys with lexan windows installed.

An additional question about fitting the lexan flush, once it is shimmed up what do you use to fill the gap between the window and the body? Can some the that weatherstripping stuff that OEM uses be cut to fit?

Also is it possible to have the lexan tinted like the original green?

Weight savings is 30 lbs up front, 20 for the rear.

I just saw this post, It is not a lexan window, but is shows how windows can be fit flush. Also how it is trimmed with weatherstripping. Now I can appreciate the difference between trim to fit and OEM fit. (pics are not mine, Re posted from a different thread)
