    I have 2 Malibu wagons that have been converted to 2 door Nomads. I was wondering if there is any way to have glass cut for the door, and side glass instead of using Lexan? I have glass in the front door on one, but they made a frame around the door, and tilted it forward-like a 57 Nomad-so I will need to have glass made for this also instead of using Coupe glass as was used on the other Nomad. This glass needs to be curved, and I have not had any luck in finding any place that can do this. Any help with this is definitly appreciated! Thanks, Rick

    One off curved and tempered glass is going to be very, very expensive.
    I would check with custom coach builders for a vendor and expect a staggering bill.

    Redesigning to utilize an existing piece or Lexan may be a more efficient way about this.
    Pictures of the Nomads??
