mine was made in 3/16 and its seems fairly stiff, not sure I would do 1/8. I havent spent too much time with it, while its a good chunk of weight its also over the rear tires and for me traction is more of an issue then 50lbs at this point. I'm actually adding weight to the rear these days

I just spoke with someone at percys. The front window is about a 30lb saving however not dot legal. He said it wouldnt shatter. The side windows theres about a 10lb saving with the pair.

I think i might order up the rear

Here is mine. It saved lots of lbs. VFN hatch with percy glass. It was a bitch to line it up and make it fit. I had a glass guy cut the glass for me and then I made it fit. I have 4 zueses holding on each side and 3 in the back and the glass slides up under the the top of the roof. I can handle the assemble by myself.
