    Lexan Windows are Now at Carbon Microsystem!

    We are excited to announce the expansion of our product range and the launch of our own production of Lexan (polycarbonate) windows, perfectly suited for our carbon fiber doors and beyond!

    We stepped slightly away from our main focus to offer you another ideal solution for weight reduction and increased safety:

    Each window weighs just 2.1 kg, which is more than half the weight of a standard window (4.5 kg)! This is a significant boost to your car's dynamics.

    Every window is cut on a high-precision CNC machine according to a ready-made template, guaranteeing a perfect shape. After cutting, we process the edges and apply the necessary curvature to ensure a flawless fit.

    Thanks to their incredible strength and flexibility, Lexan windows are ideal for motorsport, but they can also be used on daily driven cars.

    Available for Order: BMW E46 and E92​

    Dumb question.. are these fixed in place or do they retain the window being able to move up and down?

      We made them identical to the original windows, so you can use them just like standard glass—raising and lowering them as usual.
      Upon request, we can apply a hard coating to them, so they won't scratch easily.

        Can they be tinted?

            Unfortunately, we do not have such an option.

                  Apparently, there is a window tint film specific to plastic. Did not know that. At least that is what the internets is saying...

                  You cannot use standard glass window tint on polycarbonate, as the plastic expands and off-gasses, causing standard film to bubble and peel. Instead, apply a specialized "blister-free" base film (such as Madico Blister-Free), use specialty plastic films (like Johnson PlexShade), or purchase factory-tinted polycarbona​te
