My understanding is that Lexan is very strong, no worries there, but it does not stand up to UV as well as acrylic. That's the reason acrylic is normally used, that and cost. A thick sheet of Lexan gets really expensive.
Car windshields etc. are laminated - they have an inner plastic layer to hold it together.
In my humble opinion, you really need to source some acrylic.
