I got a response that they can't do a complex shape as our lense but they suggest a flat lense cover.

I believe they are only plastic if they are projectors. On reflectors, they are glass, in which ours is.

the OEM is glass
I think by pc he means polycarbonate. If so that would be a good headstart since he can mold it and probably has access to materials.


Prototype maybe? idk jus throwin out ideas. Id be happy to test fit if youd like.
