Lexan Rear Glass for 360

Has anyone ever had a lexan engine cover made for a 360 spider?

 

I have one ready to go after I get my CS lid finished the supports are there to help but my opinion there not required

 

Is this for a Spider?

 

Found the pair for 800 for both

 

The supports are there on the factory car because otherwise the screen will actually 'bevel' inwards with the heat !

Its really not going to be rocket science to get a small flat bar of lightweight ali and bend it to the contour of the screen and spray it black to match.. doesn't have to be anywhere near as 'thick' as the original bars made from CF which I think was totally overkill and makes it harder to see out of the back window! I would reduce the thickness by half myself if re-making the stay supports...

You can also order the lexan from plastic4performance without the cutout for the 360 Challenge cooler (so its virtually identical then to the CS version then from Climacool).

This thing got me thinking, for coupe, the glass that seperate the engine bay with the passenger compartment can be lexan too, right?

 

Its totally flat so very easy to re-produce in Lexan however visibility is already compromised quite a bit using lexan vs optically better standard glass. I think it may be a step too far in terms of ability to see. It also needs to be absolutely sealed 100% or vapor fumes could allow poisonous fumes into the cabin which could make you very ill or worse. Proceed with extreme caution! I personally wouldn't think its worth it.

On the more extreme N-GT cars they seam weldeded a sheet of lightweight metal and got rid of the rear window altogether. Obviously for road purposes that wouldn't e great (it would be like driving a van! lol), I suppose you could always consider fitment of a digital rear view mirror using the latest night vision 4K camera tech. Its not going to be as good as good old fashioned mirror imho.. your getting into serious laws of diminishing returns with this one I'm afraid...

 

That looks epic, love it! With the holes CNC'd into it I doubt the heat dissipation will be an issue, so fingers crossed shouldn't be an issue. Who did the cutting for you?

Love it!!! VERY F40

 

I contacted plastic4performace in the uk they had it as a option for the 430 and they said they can offer it for the 360.so now it's on there site.the image post they sent me to show how it will look.i have mine on or they said 3 weeks.only thing I didn't do was the hard coat.

Really excited about this!!!! Do you have a picture???Any info on removing the stock rear glass. Is it just glued on? Thank you very mucg, Mel

 

I got so excited I thought you were talking about a 360 spider. Sorry. Still would like info on how the glass is removed.

 

I know someone that has sent in a 430 spyder glass for the company to make it in lexan

You are teasing me!!!!! Please, more info when you have a chance. Thanks, Mel

 

You cut it out with a glass cutting tool. Some look like razor blades and some are like a wire.

 

I just saved plastic4performance's website for that glass. I notice the engine bay is a bit hotter on my normal 360 since it has the challenge exhaust. Is it difficult to replace the factory glass?

 

Get the factory challenge car lexan. keeps the entire trunk lid cool to the touch. also this is not a CS

I'm in the process of installing a lexan engine cover on my 360 spider with a intake inlet at the rear. You are right, removing the glass is not easy!

 

I have and a mix
I will install in next month
