Default Mugen rep lexan install

Anyone know of any mobile glass guys in the NoVa area that have experience with installing lexan glass on a rep Mugen HT on our cars?

You have the window? Just curious. I'd expect this to be custom cut unless you can get it from the OEM.

I do have the window. It came pre-cut with the window seal. I think all that needs to be done is glueing the seal to the window then glueing the window to the top.

I looked at some of the DIYs on here, seems fairly simple, but still don't know if I'd trust myself with it. Don't want it flying off lol.

Who does your car insurance use? These places are usually mobile.

Following since I'm getting a forbidden OEM and someone has glass for me. I rather not attempt this myself so any leads would be nice.

Yeah..so don't do this yourself if you've never done it before lol...

Just tried to DIY this weekend, I got everything glued on, but there is no way I would be comfortable driving with it the way it looks currently. The 3M Windo-Weld is also extremely messy to deal with.

Gonna have to pay someone to redo it...

Gave them a call, they said they only install glass that they provide.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure safelite won't touch them.

Maybe you could find a Safelite van running around and ask the technician if they do side jobs.
