Besides being bulletproof, a good reason for using polycarbonate is that it is much more flexible than acrylic. You do not have to force it, it will almost noodle its way to fit on the curved surface. The drawback of using polycarbonate: cost, UV degradation, and surface scratching, are less of an issue these days. Bayer makes an extended abrasion and UV resistance polycarbonate called Makrolon 15. A piece of 1/4" x 10" x 43" transparent grey goes for $35 at EStreetPlastics.com <http://estreetplastics.com/>.
