Check your local parts shop

Check online anything related to window shield repair. if a "kit" is available, then go for it. However, some people may have poor results because the "filler" isn't top grade or prep of the area wasn't done right, so review the instructions. Attention to details makes a difference and if you feel this is better served by the pros, then allow them to do it even if it costs more. They usually use better stuff and overall are prepared to handle any continence's.

Well stone chip damages on windshield are very common. Repairing yourself is not going to save you any money. You will end up spending lot more money. I suggest you find a local shop, it will probably cost you less than sixtydollars. Good luck Wink
