ive just had a few idea's are they right, can you correct me if im wrong.

1.is it legal to hve all round perspex windows on a road car or do you have to keep the standard windscreen

2. could i buy a sheet of perspex cut it to the same shape as the standard windows, would it bend to the curve of the car.

3. if i had perspex windows at the front so they'd go down would they scratch

Micky

The answer to question 3 is YES,they will scratch just by looking at em!!! Regards Micky

is there any kind of coating that could be put over it to stop any scratching

i think there is but it will scratch in time


someone will put me right i guess

also perspex will shatter if hit so guess you would need a laminated screen up front

Micky

I dont know about any coatings/tints/protection etc for them,but I truely dont think it would work anyway as the glass is curved and the perspex wont be.I think you'd be wasting youre time.Are you that desperate to save weight in a road car??????Regards Micky

you could never bend it to the same shape of the original window mate, it would just be straight and go outside the frame.
cheers mark.

Is it worth looking at a group buy ?

Not planning on going Gus, using that weekend to sort part of the car out hopefully.

At the moment I don't need any parts but I will let you know.
