Not Ranked
Clois;
No doubt Lexan is the safer of the two, and the price seems very reasonable, perhaps because they hope to sell them in quanitiy.....
I haven't used Lexan for a number of years and I'm sure the w/s now are better than when I used them. Mine did scratch easily when cleaning if not careful and was badly pitted from sand and grit. I guess that happens when the Vintage cars are the slowest of the 4 classes in our run group, always following someone and catching a lot of debris (sand/grit/tire rubber), but my biggest problem was the vibration....Pretty much anything over 100 mph, it would start vibrating and after about 120 mph, vision was real blurry.... I added a center brace from the top to the bottom and that cured 90% of the problem....didn't really like the center brace either, for some reason, it always bothered me......
This may have been because of the size/shape of the windshield as well as the air flow hitting it.....The Coupes should be a lot better airflow wise and maybe, just maybe, you would not have much w/s vibration....
I just decided it was easier and cheaper to stay with glass....
