I ordered a windshield (years ago) and had a local auto glass shop to use mastic instead of the rubber piece supplied with the glass to mount the glass to the windshield frame.

I then took the frame back to my buddies garage and installed it onto the upright frames. On the last screw it cracked the top edge of the glass. Just the inter layer on glass. I think they mounted the glass just a very small amount to the right. Making that one screw about one thread to long.
Cut the screw down and installed it.

Covered the crack with an small American Flag decal.

6 or 8 years later it's still there.

I know every time he drives his Cobra he thinks about the crack. Sorry Mike.
