It's (the windshield) polycarbonate and it is used in racing cars. It's also surrounded by aluminum which expands much more rapidly than steel . I'll probably (at this point) use clips to hold it in place and adhesive sealant to weatherproof. The surrounding aluminum is not super strong and I can easily flex it with my hands. I don't see the windshield as an issue, but if it becomes one then I'll change strategies.
Thanks for a advice on the "gills" aerohead. I need to provide an exit for cooling air for the radiator. Not a lot but some. My alternative concept was to have the exit combined with the rear lights, turn signals and license plate mount. After reading your post I think I'll stick with that. I just realized today I have another full sheet of the stainless (3 feet by 8 feet) and another half sheet to work with. Should be enough for the front wheel skirts and the engine canopy covering as well as the rest of the rear body.
