Does anyone know whether the plexi from a ZPA 0.5 will fit a 0.3???

I don't think so b/c the 0.5 is longer by about 2 inches I think.

But PG did have some 0.3 plexi's left about a month ago if that helps.

You might want to pick up that 0.5 plexi though if it's in good shape, for safe keeping or to trade. I think those are the ones that are hard to find nowadays.

they always have chipped corners due to idiots over tightening them

Yeah, it's pretty rare to see one up fro sale with unbroken plexi. I've only seen a few.

You could cut 1" off of each end and redrill the NEW holes on the 4 corners to fit the 0.3 If you needed to. Clean and buff your edges after you cut and use plenty of lubricant when drilling/cutting.

All I have is a clear 0.5 cover.

I have an extra smoked 0.3 plexi but there are stress cracks around the screw holes. I can post pics if there is interest.....
