Default Re: New OEM ZR-1 windshields?

Jeff,

I just bought one of the windshields a few months ago before moving to Japan from your neck of the woods. If I knew you needed one, you could have had it delivered at the same time. Because I was leaving in a short time after the shipment arrived, the owner personally delivered the windshield to my house in person after a few days of driving from the East Coast to CA. The movers arrived the next day to pack out; talk about close.

It is first rate reproduction if you ask me. These are made by Saint-Gobain, the same company that made the replacement windshields for GM for our cars. As you know, LOF made the original as manufactured with the car. These might even be of better quality than the original since those delaminated without GM honoring any type of recall. Depending on your insurance company, you might be able to get them to replace it as I was able to and they covered everything. I had to make it an issue about the view through the delamination and glare, etc. but they gave in.

Mine is being installed by a Corvette shop here while all the other body mods are being done. I can snap some shots for you when I visit the shop next Tuesday if they are working on it or done by then. It is nicely packed and sealed so you can be assured you are getting a quality item that the vendor will stand behind.

Aloha,
