Whats the cost of a new front screen?
Got hit by a flying stone on the way to work and now it looks like i have a spider sat on my front screen with all of its 8 legs :shock:
Looks a right bloody mess :cry:
The WR1oc still rocks...
Even if i do drive a Smart car!...

I had to swap the one on the STi in May. Costed 320 Euros all included.

Assume the 5% higher VAT here will be offset by the higher labour rate in the UK.

Don't forget to swap the taxdisc holder while the screen is out :wink:

Sure the bloke of the glass repair place will have a paint stripper to melt the glue windscreens are stuck to cars with.

Ask him if he can get it off.
