Product information
Every Race Plastics window is custom-made by our experienced team in the UK. Built for motorsport, these polycarbonate windows are lightweight, shatterproof, and far stronger than glass. Unlike acrylics or Perspex, they won’t crack under pressure—giving you peace of mind when you’re pushing hard.
Our standard spec uses 4mm thick polycarbonate, meeting key racing regulations. If you need more strength, we also offer 5mm FIA-compliant windows and hard-coated options for extra durability and scratch resistance.
Windows come in clear, bronze, or grey tints, so you can match the look to your build. You can also add sliders to either or both front doors, depending on how you want to manage airflow.
Window Sliders
Our slider kits are built from the same high-quality polycarbonate as your main windows. Designed for both driver and passenger sides, they’re smooth, secure, and built to last.
You can choose between:
- Smooth operation with three fixed positions, no rattle
- Simple and reliable, with two preset stops
Easy to fit and made to avoid rubbing or scratches, these sliders are ideal whether you need more air on track or better control on the road. For full specs, visit the Window Slider Kits page.
How long does shipping take?
We’ll confirm your order right away. Standard polycarbonate kits are usually built and shipped within 3 weeks. Custom or hard-coated orders may take longer—we’ll reach out to confirm the lead time. If you’ve got a race coming up, let us know and we’ll do what we can to hit your timeline.
Can I install the windows myself?
Yes. Most builds are straightforward and there are plenty of how-to videos online. Unless stated otherwise, our windows are made to fit into standard rubber seals. Need bolt-in versions? Just reach out.
Can I pick up my order?
We usually ship via courier, but yes—collection from our Leeds facility can be arranged. Just drop us a message.
Need to change your order?
Get in touch as soon as you can. We’ll do our best to make changes, but if production’s already started, there may be a cost to amend the order.

The Austin Metro rally car
The Austin Metro rally car holds a significant place in the enthusiast scene, particularly in the realm of rallying history. Originally introduced in 1980, the Austin Metro was a subcompact car produced by British Leyland, designed to be a practical city car. However, it didn't take long for enthusiasts to recognise its potential in motorsport, especially rallying.
In the early 1980s, the Metro gained attention as a rally car due to its nimble handling, compact size, and relatively lightweight construction. These attributes made it well-suited for the tight and twisty stages of rally courses. Moreover, its front-wheel-drive configuration provided excellent traction, further enhancing its performance on varied terrain.
One of the most notable iterations of the Austin Metro in rallying was the MG Metro 6R4. Developed by British Motorsport company Williams Grand Prix Engineering, the 6R4 (6-cylinder Rally 4-wheel-drive) was a Group B rally car introduced in 1984. It featured a mid-engine layout, a powerful V6 engine, and a four-wheel-drive system, making it a formidable contender in the rallying scene.
Despite its relatively short-lived competition career due to the demise of Group B rallying in 1986, the MG Metro 6R4 left a lasting impression on enthusiasts. Its distinctive design, impressive performance, and association with the legendary Group B era solidified its status as an iconic rally car.
In the enthusiast scene, the Austin Metro rally car continues to be celebrated and remembered through rallies, exhibitions, and enthusiast gatherings. Its enduring legacy serves as a testament to the innovative spirit of rally car engineering and the passion of motorsport enthusiasts.
