Well today I was driving with the wife to go watch a movie and a fellow 3rd gen ram driver threw up a rock and put a small chip in the windshield.

It's about the size of a pea, but it's right in my line of sight so I can't very well ignore it (I dropped a big S-bomb when it hit).

I can't feel a missing piece from the inside or outside so what exactly can I do? Has anybody used those glass repair kits? do they work worth a darn? Will I need to call a glass repair company and see if they can fix it without an entire replacement. That's really going to eat into my modding money.

 

if its not to bad a glass repair company can fix it with this liquid stuff, sorry i don't remember how much it cost.

 

buddy of mine had a chip fixed by a glass company. turned out really good.couldnt even tell.if i remember right it was like 50$.

 

thakns guys, I'll try one this week.

 

if you have "comprehensive" insurance coverage, many of the insurance companies will waive the deductible for a windshield repair, as it saves them a ton of money over replacement. if the ding is less than a dime/nickel size, its a good candidate for repair. they scrape out the loose stuff, attach a vacuum doo-dad, pull a vac, and pour in the epoxy. sometimes it works great, sometimes the windshield cracks. its worth a try, especially if they're paying.

 

yea i was gonna say check insurance, i had the same problem when my buddies K2500 threw rocks all over my truck. got the windshield replaced at no charge
