Wow this is better than I thought, I was planning on the 500-700 range just because of it being a "rare" car. My car is still in storage so I will still be another month or so until the car comes out! Maybe the moulding is $20 for you danio i'm sure ill be in soon to get more parts

I have a wholesale account, cost of aftermaket glass is $99 ( Glass shops will most likely get a better deal than me as I don't do that big a volume.) + install + moulding etc.

Aftermarket in my experience are usually wavy if you look at them from an angle. I would go with OEM or PPG aftermarket, but nothing else.

I have heard some conflicting comments on the aftermarket vs OEM windshield.

I've read that PGP will pit easily compared to OEM and I've heard the opposite.
The reality is completely opposite.

PPG's replacement glass is WAY better than the factory glass for pit and chip resistance.
