Where to get "NEW" door glass?

Anyone know and how much I should expect to pay? I'm getting my windows blacked out but I also have many scratches that will stand out like a sore thumb...

If you do a search, you will find much has been written about this. About as much good as bad. But for my two cents, I got mine from NPD and it was perfect in every way.

I agree with oledave60...whenever I buy something from Classic or Year One and compare it to stuff from NPD, it seems NPD stuff is just better quality. Have run into this many times so they must be doing something right.

Regarding door glass...I got all my glass from Classic Industries. Got the green tinted version. Although all pieces fit perfect, the door glass, and more so the rear glass, has a speckled pattern throughout. More pronounced with sun glasses on and gets worse when car sits in the sun for several hours. Didn't notice it till it had been exposed to the sun for most of the summer, then it started getting worse. Once the glass cools, it fades away. Called CI and they offered to exchange all the glass even several years after the sale, so they do offer great customer service, but I already had everything lined up right so I passed. They told me they source their glass from an offshore supplier. I suggest you pass on getting it from them.

I bought most of my stuff from NPD as well but didn't even think they would carry glass. I'll check it out.

Got my set from classic industries ...one of them arrived shattered in a million peices, like a bomb went off in the box.

Replacement arrived safely, they used a different shipping company the second time.

I'm still making speaker kick panels, just closing on a new home due to close 5/01/2013. I have a few sets ready to ship so feel free to ask me about that.
