I spend about an hour making the clear covers thru a vac forming method. I vac formed over the 16" pizza pans. I will show the process bellow.

First 20x20 1/8 acrylic was used as it is sturdy.

Placed pan with a support under it in the vac former. And ran off the first part.


Part cooling off:


Pulled:

Trimming:

Sand edge smooth:

Done part

On the spare hub caps:



Drilled countersunk and secured:


Ready to go on:


Pretty clean? Will record any results ASAP. They run to the edge of the hubcap on the stock ones too and might ever try them on the OEM ones. This way my pizza pans also stayed in tact. Have both sets now.

Any thoughts?
