late last night i got a chip in my windscreen from a stone on reid hwy, had a look at it this arvo to find there is a crack from it stretching about 15cms.

Just wondering if anyone knew of a way of temporarily stop it from getting bigger, and secondly, where a good place would be to source i windscreen/fitted from.

already ran insurance copmany and theyre not going to cover it as it wasnt chosen as an optional extra

the car is an S14

any help would be greatly appreciated

cheers

O'Brien can fix it with the gel they use. Its for a permanent fix. Give them a call for a price.

yh rang them, they can fix it while its still a chip, but when it becomes a crack like the length of mine, it cant be fixed. was in the process of calling them for that gel when i saw it had gotten really bad

lol, there is no way they can fix a 15cm long chip.

go through the yellow pages and call up like every single company that do windscreen replacements then take the cheapest.

alternatively, you could get a windscreen from a wrecker or another person, and take get some one to fit it (i hear c red fits them for cheapish)
