Bob;

Here is how Bill Edison formed his Lexan headlight covers:

Look about 3/4ths the way down the page in the "Covers" section. Also
click on his "vacuum former" link. Good stuff here!

How does one put a permanent bend in a piece of 1/16" lexan? I need to
make covers for for the road racing lights on my Porsche 930. They need
to be curved like the approach to the corners of the front valance.

I assume you do it with heat, but how?

Any and all infor greatly appreciated.

Bob D.
