I know that Lexan isn't legal for street use but from an economic stand point I'm thinking of going that way.
I put 4 to 7K a year on my car and replaced the windshield due to a crack 3 years ago. The windshield is pretty badly pitted now from road debris and should be replaced again. The last one cost north of $600 just for the glass and I've seen other Cobra glass up in the 8's. If I can replace the windshield with Lexan for half or less of those numbers I can afford to replace it 2 or 3 times more often.
Whenever it quits raining I'll be taking the car to my local glass guy and be discussing with him if a Lexan replacement seems feasible.
