New Windshield
"I've got a thousand little chips in my windshield from 9 years of high speed driving. No cracks or bullseyes though. Can these be repaired or filled in?"

The glass shop does all the windshields for our local Porsche dealer. It took almost three hours for the install, but it is a treat to have a clear windshield, definately recommended, especially if covered by insurance.
BTW, they listed the cost for parts and labor at just under 800.00. I asked the installer if the windshields for Porsches are more expensive to replace than a Toyota or Honda. He said yes and no. Yes, they are more expensive because they have to buy the windshields from the Porsche dealer. If he had to buy the windshields from the Toyota or Honda dealers they would be just as expensive, but there are OEM windshields that he can get for those other cars which are lots cheaper.
