windshield repair?
 
any1 ever did this?

i have 7' inch long crack on the inside of my windshield i just noticed today. Can you really repair that shit with resin or should I just replace the whole thing?

Don't bother. After your antics today, I would anticipate more damage.

7 inch crack!? Better have it replaced.

7" inch long crack is too big for a resin repair. time to replace.
usually once it goes beyond 3/4" inch you've lost the windshield.

this is why bullseye and stone chips must be repaired immediately, especially high dollar import cars.

You probably have to replace it

how much is a new windshield?

Napolean 04-02-2005 11:56 PM

about $200... had a branch fall thru the windsheild of my car, thats all it cost i think

had to get the whole thing replaced.. but the property who's tree it was on had to pay for it.

still lost my job over it tho, lol

check your insurance, here in Florida, Florida Statute 627.7288 states that the deductible shall not apply to windshield damages.

maybe the same for you

I hate to sound silly, but what kind of place would fix a stone chip? I got one traveling through Texas one time. I would see tons of places to fix them in Texas but none in California, wierd. Maybe because we can't get to speeds over 20mph due to all the traffic. :helpme

if the damage is very small you can usually buy the kit and do it yourself---check auto parts places, or walmart---maybe the kit is 10-15 bucks.

every auto windshield place i know of does this repair for about 50 bucks.

the problem is this---even a small rock chip will usually develop into an unrepairable crack due to windshield flexing unless you get the initial nick fixed promptly.

moral of the story: don't drive the mercedes close behind the gravel truck :)
