p.s.
I heard back from Safelite regarding my repairs. A vinyl repairman is going to do the dash fix or at least take a look at it. And the chip on my fender is going to get an estimate from the bodyshop my local dealer uses. Oh boy I'm sure those guys are expensive and I'm not taking any chances with mismatched silver by giving it to a 2nd rate shop. Neither am I just going to be ok with a chip in my paint.
I'm guessing these guys are going to charge at least $600 to reshoot the fender.


We'll see what Safelit have to say about that.
By the way those of you in NJ Ray Catena Porsche uses Quality Auto Body in Rahway, NJ. 1st rate work from what I hear from Rennlist 911 owners.

"Installers use suction cups to move the glass around. No clue how it is done at the factory."

Yep, that's exactly where the shadows are.

Perfectlap, good luck with the repairs. What a mess that could have been avoided simply with a little more attention during installation.
