Chipped front windshield
I was racing one of the new 330i's and we went through an area with construction on the side of the road. Rocks went everywhere, I could hear them hitting my car. I got to a carwash and when they were done washing I looked and saw my front windshield has a chip in it and I got a little paint chip on the front windshield column. Anybody know if there is a way to fix that little chip or am I ruined for life. When I drive now, I always look at that little chip, its so annoying. That paint chip just looks bad too. So, any help guys? Thanks.

Autoglass shop is the place
I got the stone chip on the front windshield as well (normal driving on a highway with construction zone). Had a spider shaped chip in the front, that would have grown in size if left unheeded, and would have eventually cracked the whole windshield. Mercedes quoted me almost 1,000 Canadian Dollars for replacing the windshild (including the new one and installation). I ended up taking it to a local autoglass shop. They fixed it for almost $70. However you should be prepared to see a small spot at the place of the chip. The autoglass solution is not perfect or spotless.
