I've tried just about everywhere around town looking for T-bar aluminum to make the front lexan windshield braces. Anybody have any ideas? I hit up Lowes, HD, True-Value, and the large private owned shop that has a warehouse full of materials.

It's 1" x 1/8" x 96".

Where can I find it? Online is cool too.

We have one bar in front, two in back.  The one in front is on the inside, the two in the rear are on the outside.  We put some foam in between the metal and the lexan on all three bars.  Before you put the lexan in I'd suggest painting around the edges with some lexan paint (available at your local hobby store).  This gives it a cleaner look.  On the front we are currently painting this so that there is black behind where the American Iron sticker goes.  It really makes the American Iron stand out.  In the rear it hides the hatch edges that look kinda crappy.  Plus if you paint the inside it's a lot less likely to get scratched up.

That is exactly what I've been planning all along. Need to find the R/C paint. It seems all the hobby shops by me closed over the years.

...me too.....hobby shops are HARD to find...I found one, but I have recently heard that Krylon Fusion works well also.....it is everywhere....
