Default New Windshield....WooHoo

I gotta say the new windshield really makes the car look 100% better. Ive been driving it around for a year with a crack from top to bottom. I had thought about trying this one myself but........ After watching and helping the windshield dude put the new one in i am glad I didnt. Doesnt look really hard but he had all the special tools and cutters which definately made it easier. Well worth the $50 deductable. :D :party:

Mine is getting one soon.

I'm paying for it though.

Afraid of my insurance rates going up... :banghead:

Tom 35th, hello there. I was cleaning out old car magazines today and came across an old Corvette Fever with a real nice 2-page color article on the 35th. Would you like me to send it to you? Send me your mailing address at corvetteronw@hotmail.com. :blueangel:

Hey ffvetteman your rates shouldnt go up for a comprehensive claim....this is what my agent told me. Unless of course you have a few too many claims then all bets are off.

Actually I told them that it happened last november and I waited till it was warm to mess with it. Just said a rock hit it and the crack grew from there. They didnt give me any hassle. :cool:

That's the one nice thing about MA. No deductible for glass, and your "entitled" to two glass changes per year with no hassles..
