Polycarb Rear Window GB 2011\. + Weight reduction discussion
-
cheers for that Rob, i like lightened track cars, but I like knowing what it is from the inside, kinda like a GT3 RS. Its stripped but not OTT. Fibreglass doors sound good, ive only ever seen a full fibreglass kit for sale on mx3.com, wings, bonnet, doors and tailgate. It sold almost straight away. Was about 6 years ago tho!.
On side note all those interested have been sent details for deposits/ payments.
Order to be submitted by end of play next week, if anyone else is interested thats the deadline. Then this thread will be deleted and a how to and detail link created.:D :D :D

mx3gulf deposit £100.00 paid.
Garfy1981 paid in full. £240.00
Marco deposit £100.00 paid.
Jay deposit £100 paid.
Rob deposit £100 paidThe lines are now closed!!.
Ive now got to transfer deposits across to another account which should take couple of days, so i think I may be pushed to get order done by end of this week but latest will be in monday.
Ive also just got to re post the spec being ordered just to confirm everyone is happy. As there are optional extras :D .
-
Current Update
The spec for all the screens will be 4mm with bordered edge as pic below keeping it oem looking. And without wiper hole. Hope thats ok.
-
Looking forward to seeing this! :)
-

-

i was hoping for a pic before they were shipped but they are all wrapped up now :(

-

-
Mines arrived thanks not opened it yet
-
Mine arrived today too!. Also haven't checked yet but notice there is a label marked report damage within 7 days so that's the deadline if you want to check them.
Just rob still waiting.
Also need some photos for website if anyone wants to volunteer. could be future discount on persex sliders !. :)
-
just opened it and it looks great very happy thanks garfy
next thing how do you fit it lol
-
well their website sells siloflex, whcih keith ( djmarcopolo ) uses on his boats so you can either get some online or tap keith up :D , rob was talking about riviting it in, but im not sure how that would go??.
I was just going to try and find someone who works for the likes of autoglass and lives local and wave some cash at them !!.
-
well mine is ment to be as light as possible so a thin bead of silicone to keep it water tight and then alu rivets all around it.
silkoflex is a good option but tough to use unless you have a good caulking gun.
-
i still have to remove the glass. i would suggest to all that got it not to leave it standing or lying flat for long as poly carb can sag if its not supported
i have mine sitting on the rear hatch.i'm going to take the hatch off and thake the glass out of it in the back garden.
i just need to buy some alu rivets now
-
i did wonder if it would deform ? mines sitting inside car at moment as its all stripped out !
I thought you already had glass out rob from previous pictures?
-
only 2 small inch strips left to go! absoloute arse to get
-
where i'm pointing to is where the cold knife couldnt cut because of the mounting tabs hence the other knife (it might look useless but this increadably sharp)
once the window is out cut all the old glue off
just mocking it up for now i know i could of cleaning the frame a bit but i'm debating on making up a mould for it
-
Looks like a good fit, mines still in its packaging, not had anytime to have a looky yet :roll:
