I have used Lexan before on my stock car. I'm aware of the expense, thats why I was hopeing maybe plexiglass would work. I know when Lexan gets a lot of heat (like when I crashed and the car caught fire) it turnes white. I have to get some things under teh hood to be able to show it off first. Thansk for the info. I think I'll get in touch with my racin budd's back in Alabama and see if one will send me an old windshield, God knows we always kept the junk around just in case. I'll do a test and let ya know.
