    windscreen for the Z, who sells it and how much.
    B/C I drive on the F3 daily my car occassionaly gets bombarded by stones from ever present trucks, it's unbelievable. Ended up with my first crack. I want to eventually replace the windscreen as it also has the small pin head marks on it. Will also take the opportunity to fix the dash at the same time!!

    Question is can you get 2ble laminated for the Z. I want one that is bullet proof.

    I'm sick of this windscreen business, even on my previous car a week after installation and a trip to Melbourne brought it back to its previous state with 2 cracks which were repaired but could still see the damage - NG

    Standard blue-banded windscreen about $175, fitted

    Don't know who the screen supplier was, I got it done in conjuction with some other work.
    O'Briens apparently can fit bronze banded screens for about $200. The cost of a double-laminated screen would be higher than this, but I have no idea how much.

    I'd say for $175-220 you would get the plain AU-STD type

    but I'm after something much better.
    It does't take much to damage the normal ones.

    I had a laugh at my last windscreen for zed

    The guy turned up and said "oh one of these" and jumped in his truck and came back 30 minutes later with the windscreen.

    We pulled it out the back of his truck and pulled it out of the bag.

    The damn thing was a genuine nissan screen with all the jap markings and all. We had to peel off the Jap protective layer.

    He couldnt beleive it either. God knows how much it must have cost. Anyway only cost me $190 fitted.

    I recon Nissan had a fire sale and pissed off the old stock from their parts warehouse.
