plexiglass window kit ****feeler

[boostdog]

would any of you be interested in a plexiglass window kit? I'm going to make one for my e30 and thought i'd make templates to build a kit if there's enough
interest.

Let me revise this..lexan window kit...sorry. Plexi might not be up to the task and could be dangerous if broken.

For lexan windows, YES!

I would be interested. What would be the cost?

[boostdog]

depends on interest...i don't want to qoute a price just yet. Would you both be interested in a complete 6 piece window kit?

like this??

[blueapplesoda]

My main concern would be front and rear glass weight. I wouldn't want all the glass to be lexan though

[boostdog]

yes something like that

I fig i can make them to order..possibly the sun roof too but i'll have to look at that.

would you guys be interested in a black shadow outlined sticker package to along with the windows? it will look better and more oem.

why wouldn't you want the front and rear glass to be lexan if you're racing?

Very popular on Polish drift scene. Lexan that is.

My concern is the flex - especially on rear window (and forget the windshield).

[Luis325]

Im in! ive been wanting to do this to my track car since i got it!

[sonej4]

I don't know if I would want to replace all of the glass. I know I would want to at least replace the side glass.

This price sounds pretty reasonable. Especially that it's available as darkened.

What weight savings could be expected with replacing just side windows (front, rear) and what would it be if a rear window would also be swapped?

Also, would the fronts be a direct replacement and work with OEM roll-down mechanism?

[evil_twin]

usually when you do a lexan window, you're racing the car and a lot of guys will take out the window motor and regulator for the weight savings. I doubt the window will allow for the motor and regulator to work.

[boostdog]

this will be a bolt/screw on kit..your ability to roll down windows will be lost. i'm going to begin working on the kit this weekend and i'll keep you guys posted. i'll announce price once i'm able to get complete pricing.

Thanks guys

Possibly and can we say scratches from the rolling up and down? This would be cool but as race only.
