I used a 3/16" piece of tinted plexiglass (had to bake it so that it could be "formed").
To graft it, I used some serious epoxy & custom plexiglass tabs along with body filler to finish it.
It was a lot of work...

I really like the whole idea of it. I dont like how it is on your hood though. It needs a lip that the plexi sits on and then attaches to that. you need to make a ring out of something, say MDF. Attach that to the hood and fiberglass it into place. Finish it off and paint it. then cut the plexi to fit into the area. you can heat it to form it like you said. then attach it to the bottom of the hood and secure it.
But the car is ****!!!
