Title: Chipped Windshield
Post by: pgackerman on March 19, 2015, 09:36:07 pm: Fiero Gurus,

Received a chip in my windshield today. The impact area is on the driver side outside my usual field of vision. It's is a little smaller than a quarter, counting the splitting.

Should I try to get a new windshield or just a chip repair?

I've seen videos removing windshields which required saws...

Didn't even know chip repair kits were on the market.
Bought one and sealed the chip before the parade.
No one noticed anything so the repair must have turned out well.

Thanks guys.
