does any one know if you buy a repair kit for un sightly pits in your windsreen? took the car straight to auto glass after the rock hit ,but they said although it looks unsightly they can not use there repair process because each chip is to small but because there's three tiny chips very close to each other it does stand out! any sugestions? :(

Had similar problem to yours and Autoglass would do nothing as they were all too small.

All the 6 small chips were right in my drivers sight line and when the sun shone on them

made it difficult to see properly.

So the only thing left was to turn 6 chips into one very large one. Out came the old auto

center punch and one pop in the right place and hey presto Autoglass happily fitted a new screen.

Much better than a brick and does not make any mess with glass chips everywhere.

Hopes this helps

:lol:that thought did cross my mind,and its just come back ;)

eek, drastic!

Maybe make a call to insurance? If fully comp, chips be covered, but maybe explain how its dangerous to drive as it is, esp with low sun at this time of year!
