Damn Rocks!

Driving to the Airport last week at about 65 mph. Heard this loud noise (rock hitting windshield). My son points to a thing on the windshield and says "Look Dad, a splattered bug!". No such luck. The first imperfection on my new baby.

Anyone know if those Windshield repair places are any good?

Re: Damn Rocks!

If break hasn't started to streak too bad, some of those guys do wonders... As I tend to catch rocks regularly, I have had a few fixed. 75 mph moving windshield hitting a rock floating in mid air is alway a problem.

Trying to decide to grab an excursion psd when I find it or wait and order an 001 (too late to get an 000.

Re: Damn Rocks!

Bummer dude
I took my Crown Vic in a few years ago to get the rock chip patched. What they do is drill a hole in the glass to stop the break from turning into a crack. They then fill the hole in with a clear epoxy resin. It is allmost invisible. The good news is that it isn't very expensive but most insurance companys will wave the deductable if you ask.
