| New windshield
Hi, not sure if this is the correct spot, But I need a new windshield for my 2000 integra, and was wondering if anyone knows a cheap spot, speedy glass wanted $507, and I also heard about going to the wreckers.

OP - Junkyards do have windshields. However, for a car of your year, it is bound to be pitted and scratched. It will be far from mint. However, if you can live with that, I think you could get one for a decent price from the wreckers.

Like you, I just had this happen to me. However, I was able research the info needed at ICBC's website. ICBC | Glass or windshield claim
If it's just 1 window, you can drive straight to a Glass Express repair shop, no need to go to ICBC.

I want to get my windshield entirely replaced eventually. Chips here and there and a small ninja star in the middle. The ninja star isn't spreading, it's been there for like almost 2 years now. If it starts spreading sometime, I'll just get it replaced.

hey, didn't want to start a new thread.
I was cleaning my windshield today and found a bunch of tiny little chips on my front windshield. They're basically tiny little pits - but I guess these were big enough to screw with my wipers and bug me.
do you guys know if it's possible for places like Bronco glass to repair them? I have maybe like a few spots around my windshield (maybe 3 or 4 different areas with multiple holes) and they're all <1mm diameter little pits.

It's not worth going through everyone. At that point, it would be cheaper to just replace the windshield.
