I wouldn't do this to original cars...but for others it just might help.

Tired of breaking the little window pillars on your cars??? I know I am :)
So what I have tried is filling in the little "wing/butterfly window" with Testor's Clear Parts Cement and Window Maker. It's goes on opague so you can see what you're doing, but as it dries it turns clear. For really small openings I just put in in and let dry. On larger openings you can use tape on the inside of the opening and then apply the Testor's.

Do you have any pics? I am looking for a way to put the "glass" in a custom cast.
