My .2 GT3 will be here next week and once I get / install the Bray product, I'll report back.

When I took it off my '15 GT3 during trade, the glass was perfect! Not a single chip in it. Did the job and if it was readily available, I'd replace it after every year or so.

We'll see how Bray works.

Had Clearplex on a vintage Ferrari with no new windshields available. Loved it, high rake glass but very minimal distortion.

Is Bray the only option now, I can't seem to source pre-cut/formed Clearplex from anywhere.

I ordered the Bray product and received it about a week later. They were responsive and the product arrived in a nice box.

Their single layer product appears to be similar to clearplex. The template left ~1/8" gap around the edge, which is OK. It laid down nicely with no major issues.
