I think this evo is cursed, might be time to look for a nine. I was just headed over to a stereo shop, so I'm toodling down the freeway..... all of a sudden WHACK :buck2: I'm like "What the hell was that?!?!?!" So I look all over my window and low and behold I have this!!!!!!!

So in the course of my ownership I have suffered the following, and remember this is on my 2005 8, its like what 4 months old? I have been rear ended, resulting in 2k of damages and a tweaked subframe, I curbed my wheel, and I got a freakin GINORMOUS crack in my window!!!!

I'm gonna torch it and buy a new one.

wow. i feel your pain, i got my car less than 2 months ago and just 2 weeks ago some fucktard ran over a big sharp piece of metal that pretty much sliced my front bumper in half. words cannot express the anger i had on that day. but then i think "well, it could have been worse." i thought the damn thing took out a headlight and damaged my fender also. just remember, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger...

:D

Lol telling me its 900 bucks is supposed to make me feel better?!?! I'm calling tomorrow, I'm gonna try to buy it on the sheriff's department account, we get windows for actual cost, I imagine it will be around the 400 you said. I was told that it might be 300, but thats for a standard crown vic window, I'm expecting it to be a little higher.

edit: oh yea, as for what hit me, i'm sure it was a rock thrown up by the SWIFT trucking 18 wheeler that was infront and to the right of me.

If the crack isnt too long (like 12-18 inches) you can get the hole on your windshield filled with epoxy for like 20-30bux... happened to me on my old car.
Good luck

It's alright. Shit happens. Take a look at Garry's windshield. If the rock that hit it actually went through the winshield, it would have hit him square in the forehead. Now that would be "god at work." :2funny:

Damn dude, that royally blows! How bad is it this time? Do you actually have to replace the windshield? I think these car's are cursed, I have never had soooo much bad luck in all my car's put together.

I Just got dumped, so i'm thinking we need to have an informal meet or something some time.... I heard shaun talking about strip clubs.... I think that will cheer the both of us up* :D



So you left Fatty? :2funny: J/k

Yeah Its a little Star. I could have it fix real easy but I dont know any places that Fix Windshields instead of Replace. Any Input? Its not cracked which is the good thing. But its right above my line of site infront of me :buck2:

This is getting fucking gay...

Shaun, wanna know why I didn't show up yesterday? Becuase a NAIL THE SIZE OF A SMALL FURRY WOODLAND CREATURE is embedded in my tire, right against the sidewall.... I doubt I'll be able to repair it.

I'm starting to not like this car....

Well thank god you have an excuse cause I was so gonna call you out on not showing up. I mean my god if moogle can make it you better be incapacitated. But Ill accept a large nail, that does suck, expecially witht he price of these tires, Ive already lost one to a nail too. Dude the other day I pulled a pair of pliers out of a tire that some lady in her sienna ran over, it went through the tread in the bottom of the tire and got wedged half way out the sidewall, it was pretty sick. Any who, get your tire fixed cause I expect you there next week. ;)

And me and terrick were talking about a strip club meet some time soon. So since your the newly single one you get to pick the spot. O0

FYI, Conrock concrete company in Irwinadale has their own windshield replacement department because of all the claims they get. If you get your windshield damaged by a Conrock truck, all you have to do is give the license plate number, location and time of day. If this matches their records of where the truck in question was supposed to be, they will replace your windshield free of charge, no questions asked.
