    Meanwhile, when The Rock hits your windshield, you’re really hesitant but still ask him for a fistbump.

    And a new windshield too…

    Anyone ever try the windshield resin kits? I also have a couple of knicks but am a little lazy to repair it, especially since idk how the resin will look.

      It can be invisible after the repair, but it can also sometimes leave a slightly wobbly look or an outline if it’s not perfectly flush with the rest of the windscreen.

      I have, for a rock hit that made a crack like the size of a quarter that spreads out in multiple directions from the center of the break. Like a $20 kit from an auto parts store. One where you clean the area, remove debris. Put on a suction like device, and drip the material in and let stuff sit for a while. I thinkni chose a RainX kit. Don’t remember.

      It definitely filled in the crack and made it a lot less noticeable, but it’s still noticeable. Supposedly it strengthens that part and helps stop the crack from spreading. Dunno. Been fine for about a year now.

    Every fucking car I own. Will get an impact on the windshield. My sports car? Opposite side of the freeway. A chunk of road cam and gave me a nick not even a month with the car. Same thing the car before that. Same thing the car before that. I always get it right in my line of sight. I hate it. But it’s not enough to replace it.
