ive been thinking about making a plexiglass hatch for the black car. The frame would be made of carbon fiber, with a plexiglass window. Very light, and still utilizing the stock hinges and latches. Probably be about 400-500 bucks depending on how much the parts are.

maybe, depends on how nice it turns out and how light it is.

I would recommend Lexan instead of Plexiglass

Yeah lexan won't shatter.. How much does the stock hatch weight I bet you would save more than 50% on the weight..

cymfc3s

good idea. once i get the frame done, ill start experimenting with both.

yea that sounds good. depends how it looks, i'd get it for aesthetics. pics when you can plz.

so are there any downsides? That would save a lot of weight, that hatch is heavy.

How's this for interest....how much and where do I send the check?

I've been wanting to find/have one made for awhile...if you could get one done, I would be willing to help in manufacturing more.
