I had the lexan windshield installed today by a local window shop. Took about an hour and they charged me $90.

This is the 1/4" model from Five Star. I also plan to use two layers of protective film. The cut, fit, and finish was top notch - it was curved exactly like a factory glass windshield and fit into the frame perfectly.

Lexan weight is 15lbs. I weighed the stock windshield after it was removed and it came in at 24lbs. Net weight savings is 9lbs.

Visibility is incredibly clear and non-distorted.
