Default There are something you just cant avoid

there are something you cannot avoid when owning a honda s2000. The care is small and low that pain chips are all over the car after a day of driving on a poor condition road, now recently this week I have a crack on my windshield this week. You think warranty will cover it because of the design of the s2000? lol

gona get a quote tm for a windshield replacement. Maybe get a lightweight pixieglass windshield to save a couple of pounds.

i don't think a factory warranty will cover body damage by off-roading an s2000.

Check with your auto insurance. In some states, like Florida, windshield replacement is a no-deductible claim by law.

a poor condition road is not off roading, its reality up here in the New England states that have deep freezes in the winter

check with your insurance first, like negcamber said. chips and cracks can usually be repaired for free if you go through your insurance.

most insurance companies make you select full glass coverage as part of your policy, else you are going to have to pay a deductible.

Depends on the insurance company.

I've had two chips repaired through insurance at no cost to me, and no increase in premium.
I dont have glass-specific coverage either.
