Non-OEM replaced after hail damage got chipped the first week of getting the car back. :mad:

OEM Nissan glass aren't made by Nissan anyway. They just put a Nissan logo on it. I replaced mine with an aftermarket glass. I see absolutely no difference between the two. In fact, my wipers work better on my aftermarket glass, strange.

I should have worded things differently. My original query should have been stated this way.. "are there factors that are common with ALL aftermarket glass that would cause me to avoid putting it in any of my vehicles" |

In my previous Z I had Safelight do my windshield and they broke one of the a pillars I was pretty mad. But they covered it and had it installed in no time.

I replaced my factory windshield to a no name aftermarket brand couple years back for only $230 in my driveway. There is not a single difference as far as I can tell. The quality of the aftermarket windshield seems identical and it's 100% flawless.
I honestly think there is no difference between OEM and aftermarket when it comes to glass. |
Safelite has put windshields and other replacement glass in almost all the vehicles I've owned, from ancient Hondas (broken driver's side fixed glass) to sand blasted windshields on Camaros. Never had an issue, never saw a difference in quality. Just my :twocents:

I was supposed to pick up my car today but needless to say that didn't go well. Long story short when I picked it up there was glue/adhesive coming out the seams (drivers and passengers side), the gaskets/trim pieces didn't line up like they used to, and they chipped the paint on the lower A-Pillars (both sides near the bottom close to the hood). Obviously I'm pretty upset about the whole thing and they are going to call me tomorrow about it. My question is when it eventually gets fixed what should I look for? I have a feeling it's going to be a crappy fix job either way now. Not really sure what I should do. I'm also not sure what they are going to say about the chipped paint. I'm assuming getting them repainted is the best option. Open to any suggestions, thanks

The A Pillars pop off and can be replaced.

I'd assume they come painted. When my windshield was replaced they took them off so they wouldn't get scratched.
