if your in AZ contact Mike at aliteautoglass.com, he does custom cuts for all kinds of applications, including chop tops.

Don't know about chop tops, but I just had my windshield cut at speedy auto glass, it was $65 for the glass.

I cut lexan for cars all the time (mostly race cars). The problem with lexan is it scratches fairly easily, even if you get the scratch resistant type. If you try to run the wipers you wont see for very long :D

If your still interested after that bit of info, e-mail me at actiongrafix@hotmail.com or call me at 480-545-1400 8:30-5, Lexan is real light and can be shipped inexpensively.

..how would i get u the sizes of the window?
..would i make a template?

Do you own a sandblaster? If so, cut it yourself :)
