f*cked up my windshield

Just letting off some anger..Yea so i was trying to look at some rust under the weather strip around my window with a screw driver.. and crack! the damn window breaks.. it was a flawless window and a new window will cost a couple hundred. Anyone know of a windshield place with some good prices?

dude that windshield shouldnt cost u more than 100-150, i bought one for my 63 Rivi last year and it was 95 bucks!!!

alright that makes me feel better... did u install it urself?

Ya, because the cars chopped so i cut it and installed it myself. I had the one in my 94 s-10 replaced about two years ago, and it was only like 110 installed!!

damn i got a quote over the phone and they said 300 installed. was it hard to get it all sealed up and stuff?

No, just make sure to lay a heavy bead of urethane down if ur gonna install it urself, u can always clean the excess off easier than tryin to reseal it!!

I sandblasted it and it worked great!!!! I bought a little 5gallon sandblaster from harbor freight and went to town, theres nuthin to it!! It takes a while, but it does work, all u do is pull the trigger and make even passes all the way across the glass, back and forth, til ur piece hits the floor!!I used some tape, gaffers tape, used for sandblasting, to mark my line and protect the rest of the glass, also wrapped the part not to be cut with heavy mil plastic just ot be safe!!

sounds good... so just wrap up the good part like crazy and blast the excess off... u go slow because of the heat or did ya just go to town?
