I'm just going over my new race car and among other things I'd like to replace the windscreen. I've taken the old one off, and its just a flat piece of clear plastic cut to shape and held in its curve with a bunch of small bolts.

This seems a pretty simple piece of kit, so I imagine I just need someone to cut around the old one and copy the bolt holes. Is there a good place to get this done? I'm based in the south east.

It is just a flat sheet so any polycarbonate supplier..

Ideally you want the teflon coated antiscratch stuff. but you can get away with uncoated and just change it when it scratches... it costs a lot less ~!!

Lexan Marguard - unless you want to replace it every time you use the wipers. Elgee Plastics in Reading do mine
