Is there anyplace in the area or has anyone had custom glass made? Recommend somewhere? I have been toying with the idea of ditching the rear doors and stretching the fronts to make a 2dr sedan, but the glass keeps me from doing it.

When I called them last year about windscreens for the kit cars they said they didn’t do tempered glass

Just have them made from modified impact acrylic. Better than polycarbonate as that material doesn’t absorb moisture(why headlight covere eventually get that haze shit on them) Various impact levels, but typically 80-100 MIA is what you’ll use. Thermoforms easily as well, so shaping the countor to fit the doors isn’t difficult.

More scratch resistant than polycarbonate as well, just more expensive. Still going to be FAR cheaper than having custom tempered glass windows made. you DO NOT want to use regular glass.

your point? If it’s something I want to do for myself why is it pointless? I could care less about how much work it is I enjoy doing it. If it comes out the way I want the next step would be back halving the car. Guess not everyone is content with Autozone bolt ons.:retardclap
