Default Question to those that use the FAL Lexan rear half kit.

This is mostly just a question out of curiosity. I was wondering if anyone that may have installed the rear half kit on their car experienced an increase in noise from the outside. I was thinking sense they are lighter that the noise reduction would not be as good as the stock glass.

I have also heard that there is a signifigant a increase in glare over the stock glass. Is that true?

Thanks in advance.

there is an increase in glare. this especially becomes more noticeable over time as the lexan gets scratched (its softer than glass) and all the scratches start to absorb the light instead of letting it pass through.
never been in a street car with lexan however I imagine if installed correctly there wouldnt be much if any increase in noise.
