I just had a new windscreen. The car was supposed to come with a green gradually tinted stripe, but it didn't. It does now. Good thing aswell, because I managed to get it chipped within a week..

Flowerfred, I didn't choose for the green strip but Andy545 was so enthusiastic about it I might get a windshield with it if I my current windscreen gets damaged.. Do you want to make a picture of it so I can see how it looks with the rest of the car???

TIA!!

UPDATE!

I just made an appointment for next week (it's about time!) to have my windshield replaced under warranty with a loaner at Prestige BMW in NJ!

What a great experience i had with them so far, my local dealer (will not name names) said their next available appointment was not until near Thanksgiving!

I'll keep you guys posted on the outcome.
