A polycarbonate roof would be much cheaper and easier, but first you have to deal with the windshield issue. I had and have a similar dilemma for my kit car. It's a Blackjack Zero. The original windshield was a snap on polycarbinate piece. It worked quite well even though it sounds cheesy. Unfortunately there is no way to attach a roof to it. I wanted more wind protection and a roof to save me from the strong sun in Southern California. I solved the windshield issue by finding the closest match that can be easily obtained then cut down the glass and frame to fit my car. It was pretty involved fitting it and making additional parts to mount it. My total cost was $1,300. I do my own work. I researched for 2 years then made it happen in 2 months. I'm very happy with the results, but it was rather labor intensive. I next need to make a "T" top and polycarbonate roof panels. My guess is that it will be another 2 years to do that. I'm very picky. You can see my work on Facebook. I maintain a site for Blackjack Zero. There is a short article and over 100 pictures of the windshield project.
