Re: plexiglass

it scratches very easy so make sure how you mount it will be easy to change out later, and I am unsure that it will hold up to the engine heat very long, most of those show cars just drive from the trailer to the grass...not day to day traffic

Re: plexiglass

thanks for the info. talking to the plastic people, i found out that if you take it off for the trip, you can keep it there for years. one guy had his for 5 years. thanks again.
