Found a tiny chip/crack in my windscreen today no bigger than a 5 cent coin. I've seen those ads on tv about the O'brian glass repairs, where they use that gel or whatever to fix it. Has anyone ever used them and are they any good or what? Any feedback would be appreciated

yep they are and reasonably priced

Hmm, there windscreens are super expensive, I hope there repairs are more reasonably priced.

I used Jim's windscreens last time and that was the only place that gave a reasonable price for a new windscreen, not sure if they do repairs though...

Why bother, new wind screen is between 150 and 300 dollars :S. Good idea to replace them anyway but especially after a chip.

Can you buy an new replacement windscreen for a 32 with the metal loop for the aerial on it? Good excuse to try and retain the factory windscreen.

the inbuilt antenna windscreens cost a lot more than your average windscreens. Like $600+ brand new. Also windscreen seals from nissan are another $300~ a pop. Unless you want to fit chunky generic ones. To get it looking as it was from factory, it will cost prob close to $800 or fill the chip in for $90 :)

Hey that's a great deal. Where did you have that done?

Yeah, it's pretty good, I called around like 5 stores and they all quoted me around $275-295.

Anyway, the place is called Roy Windscreens.

44 Claredale Road, Dandenong.

I use capital autoglass got some cards floating around here, i'll post up a number if I remember at home. He can supply windscreens with aerials and he mentioned a number around 450 but i'm not certain whether that is just glass or plus labor etc etc. It is nice to retain the antenna I agree :worship:.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
