has anyone gone to a glass man and had a glass sun roof cut? or maybe lexan or plexiglass?
on every FC i have ever had, the sun roof rusts out. no matter what. and the stock glass ones rarely come up for sale. and when they do people want 350-400 easily.
so i figured lexan would make a good replacement. plus it would save a few lbs. anyone here done this? got pics?

I have a fancy plastic one on my coupe, Its fancy because it uses the stock rubber gasket, and it has a support frame so it bolts to stock location.
Problem is the damm thing has warped from the heat.

lets see some pics!
did you cut it yourself? how did you match the curve in the roof? (if you did it)
