Windscreen repair/replacement contacts
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has any windscreen repair contacts that can do a good price on either a chip repair or replacement windscreen. Ive been to O'briens and they want $129 to fill in the chip but need to make it bigger to be effective and there is a possibility they may crack the windscreen more. I have also rang 2 Subaru dealerships and they want $1088.44 for a genuine windscreen which i think is ludicrous! Hate to think what the price for the JDM Spec C light weight one like the one i have would cost so ADM is going to have to do! I would prefer to stay genuine. So if anyone can help out it would be greatly appreciated and probably involve some kind of free alcohol as a thankyou. *before i get told to do it under insurance, im with JUST CARS who are the only insurance co. that dont do 1 free 1 a year. (farkn cunts!!!) Cheers, Wayno

I use Budget windscreens, Paul is the guy's name. He's mobile, based in Welshpool. Usually under $300 for anything supplied and fitted.
When you get your "lightweight" spec C windscreen removed, measure it and comapare it's thickness to standard, you may be surprised to find no difference. |

Thanks for the info guys, was kind of looking for someone
with direct contact to these people as in family or mates so they can possibly get a good mates rates price. Also those prices quoted, are they for GD's or GC's as i know GC's are a shit load cheaper than the GD ones. Cheers, Wayno

From memory it was around $200 for a GC8 so I would imagine $300ish should do a GD |

Mine was for a GD. I did the ring around to the usual suspects, windscreen obrian, instant windscreens and a couple of others that i can't remember. Majority wanted up near the $600 mark.

Mate how big is the chip? if its only small maybe better to get it repaired then having to replace your genuine screen. I had one repaired by a mob called ultrabond, they came out to my house to repair it, did a great job and i think it was under a $100 aswell.

started to split and there is a possibility of it carcking the whole thing hence looking for prices on a new windscreen. Would love to just get it fixed but liked to be prepared if it doesn't work out.
