so I dropped my car to get my windshield replaced... covered insurance at no cost to me, and OEM... droped it off at 8:30 they said it will be done with in two hours or less... 11 comes noon rolls around nothing so I drive there around 1pm (satellite auto glass) I get there and I see my car parked, so before going in to get my keys I go and do a full walk around it and inspect it all.. NOT happy whoever parked it the car was sitting on top of the curb aka my cf lip eating it sad I know.. I look at my freshly painted roof top and there is scratches for days on the corners were the roof top brackets were removed and I was mad man... guy keept telling me yes I see it am sorry we will pay for all of it, I said damm right you will... so now I need to redo my roof either paint or wrap it gloss CF and get a new front lip... lip isn't bad but still am super picky...

well that's my story now wait for a call from them and settle it down.. install job looks great as it was factory but sloppy job around it.. oh well what you going to do right...

Sucks big time... That is why I replaced my windshield myself.


I don't like random/unknown people driving or working on my car(s). That, and it seems impossible to find anyone who does a good job.

That really sucks bro. But at least they said they would pay for it. Good luck.

I had Safelite doing my windshield in my driveway. Took the guy only 45 minutes. Very professional.

Safelite did my 2011 Chrysler. Total mess. Cut the dash, moldings are not flush. Yep. I will do my E55 myself, just looking to find a decent source.

Sorry to hear

berti_00

Yah I got pretty bumed still am but well see how we handle it.. do you guys think glossy cf wrap would look good or no?? just paint it again

AKnight55

berti_00

is that cf seems more of mate black

AKnight55

It was a cloudy day, so it does look more matte in this pic.. However, under light it is more gloss. Yes it is cf, here is a close up pic..

berti_00

there isn't cf that looks glass shiny is there?? I want to match the sunroof wich now that's how it is just as shiny as the glass..

AKnight55

Dont believe they make a cf that is gloss like you are describing.. Look at pic of chawkins car, thats the material that will match.

berti_00

$341 installed plus tax. $241 out the door. Only a few reviews on them-positive at least.

Really sorry to hear about that man, good thing to see they are taking care of the damage.

The car and CF roof wrap look killer!
Breti 00, a CF wrap would be a good option instead of painting it.
Hope everything works out.

Your car is fcking sexy! Can't believe I said that about a pewter car

Yuille36

There is only one guy at safelite that even touches my cars, he's replaced my windshild in my C230K, E63 repaired two chips on my C63. I request him every time.

AKnight55

Whats wrong with pewter

Wait till I get the E63 bumper on

CharlyE500

Hey man, can't wait to see your conversion ! I am still convincing myself. And the worst part is...... I already bought the 63 facelift grill. Post some pix when you have it done !

AKnight55

Sure will!

Still got a few more months of nasty weather up here though.
