OldYeller 06-22-2007, 06:35 AM Sorry for your grief--I thought the xB2's would have better luck. You need the rock catcher mod:

OldYeller 06-22-2007, 06:40 AM They slip right on. Some people like the JDM models--but those are both U.S. Domestic issue!!
inversed 06-22-2007, 03:33 PM Yeller that's awesome.
LVMYXB 06-25-2007, 09:52 PM Like the pix, good for a laugh. Not to start a "sky is falling thread" but my xB also a little more than a week old now has a crack about 10" long in it. No signs of a rock chip at first, but upon further examination by service manager at local dealer a chip was indeed determined to be at fault. Are these winshields up to snuff??
stick_1NZ 06-25-2007, 09:58 PM Luckily I haven't gotten anything like it yet. Well, I try not to drive on the highway...if I can.
az_pinoy 06-26-2007, 04:52 AM well, the windshield arrived at the dealership this afternoon so the cracked one can finally be replaced...haven't gotten a chance to take a pic yet cause i've been too damn busy with finals...i'll try tomorrow :rofl:

06B0X 06-26-2007, 05:04 AM The new xB I drove at Exposed on Saturday got a windshield cracked from a passing dump truck. You should of seen the guy when he got out - I didn't do it, it fell from a truck!
Course I drove that one and had to laugh that the car wasn't even sold and the windshield got cracked.

same thing happened to my homies car. the 2nd day he owned it he got a really small chip. then the heat just made it spider web. he priced it at the dealer and it was like $800 dolllars!!!!
