someone wants to sell me the 2 back windows for a EG hatch for $50 bucks, is that a good deal?

and is it worth it?

how many lbs would I be saving from switching the OEM ones to the lexan?

 

where you at if you dont buy them i will !

 

bump

 

you'd save quit a few pounds, but lexan scratches easily.

 

DeadEnd is right. Lexan will look like crap pretty soon.

 

Go on a diet. I hope that's not your daily

because i'm positive it's illegal to have lexan windows on a street car.

It's also REALLY sharp if it breaks.

Rand0m's car on ClubCivic.com after vandals threw rocks at his new FAL windows.

 

"Light is fast, No fat chicks allowed"

 

I wiegh 140, and this car is not a street car, its going to be a drag hatch

 

then run em, very good deal, look into local rules when i ran honda challenge, mine were illegal

 

seriously, the back windows don't weigh much at all. when I had mine removed for my paint, I picked them up and thought it wasn't glass it was so light. The windshield is where a lot of weight is, along with the rear window.

 

How did you break lexan, its pretty hard to do.

Lexan will flex and cut you, glass will cut you as it crumbles.

If I had to pick, Id get cut by glass.

when automotive glass breaks it crumbles into tiny little pieces. from just looking at the pic of that broken lexan window decapitation comes to mind.

Do you not understand that atomotive glass is SAFETY GLASS?

Like doood said, look at the glass they broke in the front windows of the hatch above. That is stock glass. Safety glass.

I've had safety glass end up in my mouth in an accident. It does not cut you very well. It did cut, but just enough so I could taste blood in my mouth.

Rally windows are hardcore. I've seen some over 1/4" thick.

FAL windows, however, aren't approved for sanctioned rally events. They're only NHRA drag approved, and are 1/8" thick. That's about the thickness of two CD's.

 

yea when i had mine on the old car we diodnt order it we just kid bent it into place while riviting each pieace also used this **** called window wheather strip max we can run a garden hose on it and it wouldnt leak


custom is the way to go on cars
