BlackMagic, ano yung sa novus, repair lang or replace talaga?

Any one with an idea on how much a windshield cost? Kahit Taiwan o local lang basta medyo mura. Wala kasi talaga sa budget e. Its for a Civic EK 96.

Thanks ulit!

Yung friend ko nagpalit ng winshield ng EK 96... surplus cost 5k to 6k dito sa Baguio. Probably cheaper in Manila.
I had mine replaced sa honda tarlac last year & it cost around 28k... buti nalang naka comprehensive insurance ako... so binayaran ko 2k participation lang

ei bluesman,

kung 2" diameter ang crack, i would advice to have it replace na lang dahil iyong repair is good only for small cracks.

sorry to hear that. saan bandang C-5 nangyari iyan? tsk! tsk! ingat na lang tayo next time...

Bad trip talaga diyan sa C-5. Ingat kayo dun sa bandang fort bonifacio, paglampas ng Kalayaan. Kala ko rin before galing lang sa mga gulong ng sasakyan na nasa harapan ko yung mga batong tumatama sa akin. Pero napapansin ko tinatamaan lang ako ng bato pag nasa outer lane ako tsaka me tumatama kahit wala akong kasunod.

You better have it replaced. Kahit Novus, bumabalik pa rin yung crack. Sa kaka-repair mo, it will cost more than replacing it. Get the replacement para mas mura. Yung laminated na kunin mo para matibay, di nga lang kasing clear ng tempered.

hey bluesman! better to have it replaced na lang, better to invest in getting a new windshield instead of regretting later on kapag may masamang nagyari sa yo or your family.

Thanks sa lahat ng replies!

I already checked with the insurance company and they said its covered. Yippeeee!!! participation lang babayaran ko which is 2k...papalitan ko na lang ng bago...affidavit lang daw ang kailangan...

Cocski, mga 1 kilometer after the c5-kalayaan intersection ako inabot...yung may mga squatter na sa gilid...buti nalang hindi nabasag yung buong windshield, otherwise mas malaking aksidente inabot ko..

Ingat kayo lahat...

Good to hear that it's still covered by your insurance. :wink: Mas nakatipid ka na, orig windshields must've cost 8K++. Doble ingat na lang sa susunod na daan mo dun, baka maging suki ka nila sa mga stoned-windshield gang.

good for you ako naman nabasag windshield ko along expressway kasi po mainit tapos malamig aircon
covered din ng insurance,pero sila na rin gumawa ng affidavit, kakatuwa para ako si ace ventura naka labas ulo habang nag dri-drive, nung nakuhanan na ng picture saka ko lang inalis windshield
