believe its or not its only 20$ lolz, normally they charged 30$ lolz i called around and some places charge up to 50$ to 60$ , that freaking totally ripped off lolz, well the way they do to patch up the crack and patch the rock chips , i saw its, its has 2 pressure devices one on the out side and the other inside windshield and this one inside has a small mirror facing outside, slowly moved into places tighten 2 devices and has a small tube which its now pour in the glass glue slowly but sure seal up the cracks all together, same process repeated 3 times, and let its stay out the sun for 30 minutes , after clean up window and its wah lah lolz, almost disappear to the point that you can even tell if your windshield ever get chip there, like i said hair line fracture ehehhe, very happy with it, i also talked to the guy who fixed my windshield he own a IS350, told him to join clublexus ehehheeh to find out what he needs to fixed up his car lolz , he says anyone ever needs any glass repair or changes windows, windshields, just stop by he'll hook u guys up.....

Thanks for the info blitz. I had a crack on the windshield few weeks ago also on the freeway too. Luckily it was small enough but not noticible. Well if it gets any worse, I know where to take it in now

Damn that's cheap... I got a chip that turned into a 3" spyder.... Had to replace the whole damn thing. They could not fill it in.
