Title: Lexan windows
Post by: Nvy on July 24, 2023, 11:23
For @Petrus I have found this on SC:Linky (https://www.plastics4performance.com/lexan-polycarbonate-windows-and-kits/toyota/mr2-mk3-roadster-hard-top)

In case you missed it, now you can give it go and let us know :)

I have those windows.

They are fine for Motorsport but road use.... They'd be grossly impractical.

They scratch very, very easily.

Should yield a kilo at least.
