you could allways get the JDM windows for a bB from Japan. Those are clear. Shipping would kill you though.

what tint is on them from the factory? If its just a factory applied tint you could take it off, it'd be a lot of work but its possible. But I'm guessing thats not the case. Is it inside the glass or is the tint actually a physical property of the glass?

later

You could replace them with lexan or plexi, all but the windshield but it's clear already.

Good luck with it, PPP (please post pics)

Thanks everyone!!

I thought about plexi or lex but, its too soft. Glass is obviously the best and such a tough find when it comes too car show-clear and prefabbed parts.....I might as well have em shipped JDM style, I will probobly end up paying about the same amount of money having them made......WTF!!!



peace,

I will post pics when its done........
