perspex is the cheapest & most easily marked then there is polycarbonate which is a bit more scratch resistant ,then you got lexan which is the most scratch resistant .

ive got lexan on the 5.
when they got scratched i just used a mild cutting compound (watered down g10)and polish and it brought them up like new.
by polishing them it also stops the inside steaming up and water bead off the outside

When building my car I got the rear quarters and screen from plastics4performance. Then couldn't warrant spending 200 quid for the fronts so I got a couple of sheets of lexan off of eBay. It does scratch a bit easier than the coated stuff but as said just polish it out
