I just confirmed it with Allen @ AMD they are very close to releasing Daytona Tempered Backlite as well as mouldings , price point similar to Superbird . Very good news .

Is it correct to assume the janek rear plexiglas is flat, with not a hint of the correct bubble look?    :shruggy:

I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

Hi Greg and Daynatelo.

Nope its exactly like the real glass, as I have one here!
Was gonna use it in my C500 clone, but I missed out on the car...
Got my eye on a 70 Charger now, I might do a Dayclowna instead?

Hey John -  I guess I was thrown off by the "it's garbage"  wording above by the OP.      :shruggy:

So, it's not that bad then???  And perhaps quite exact?

Curious on how you are shaping the plate to make your mold and what is your pattern?

I bought one from Janak.  I put it in place and it actually looks really good. Nice curve and fits perfect.  I have not installed it nor has it seen sunshine yet.  I was told by Ted J that it is some kind of Polymere?  Looks like lexan to me?  But I can't find nor want to pay the price for real glass....so I guess it depends on what you are building.  I think my TJ plastic rear glass will be fine for my CLONE.   :2thumbs:

If you going thru the trouble to install a plug ( yea its a fiberglass one ) you can in a short time buy a tempered Daytona backlite from AMD for 1500 or if your on a budget get a lamented backbite for 800 . what ever you do leave the plastic backlite for a race car . What is your plan for mouldings ?
