Can somebody tell me where I can get the rear window for a FFR Daytona ?
Factory five is likely the only place you will find one. They have them made specially for the car. Theirs will also likely only fit a Factory Five.

FFinisher is correct, unless you are looking for the lexan rear hatch which they don’t make anymore. That could only come through a forum member that’s not using theirs

Also, as I understand, they are different depending on the version of Coupe you have. I don't believe the current Gen 3 hatch window fits previous versions, and I've heard it's the only one available from Factory Five. Someone can correct me, but that's what I heard from someone else.

At the very least the Gen3 glass has a latch hole in it that the earlier versions did not.

What would it take to fab a plexiglass rear hatch?
Could one lay a flat sheet of lexan on top of the existing glass window and with a heat-gun get it take the correct shape?
Or just flex-fit it in there and rivet it in place?

Gen III Coupe #17
The first gen were a piece of lexan.
FFR MkII, 408W, Tremec TKO 500, 2015 IRS, DA QA1s, Forte front bar, APE hardtop.
Hi, was just inquiring with FFR about replacement for my front windshield on the coupe (all the same gen 1, 2, 3 so makes it easy). I inquired for you about the rear windshield, appears they are still available. From FFR:
"The glass changed for the Gen 3 but the Gen ½ is still available. (12812 = $375.00 plus shipping). If replacing the rear hatch glass piece for the Gen 1/2 only, it would be: #14886 – rear hatch glass = $499.00 plus shipping. If the rear hatch is lexan, you would need the complete rear hatch retro-fit kit which would be: #15247 = $749.00 plus shipping"

The originals were plexiglass not lexan. Just like the side windows.
Lexan has no hard cote where plexiglass does.
As of today Lexan can be purchased with a hard coat.
