The webmonsters get a lot of contacts from folks selling 'stuff'. This is
the first one that seems to have some value to the list. This outfit claims
to be able to make glass for any car and the prices are very reasonable
compared to the other outfit that does this kind of stuff (in Finland).
Still cheaper to find a good used windshield or sideglass but if you cannot
than this type of service is about the only option to replace your rare
glass.
We have not knowledge of the quality of this company and pass it along as
information only.
