The comprehensive deductible on your insurance should cover it.
It doesn’t matter how much over that amount it costs.

Damn, this is a funny topic. My parent's old 90 accord got one of thos ein the window. We put supeglue on the small crack immediately and it's held ever since. My dad's current 99 camry got one (with me driving as well) and he didn't do anything about it and eventually replaced it. Heh, while I was in seattle this weekend, same thing happened to my cousin's civic I borrowed! I hope this dones't happen with the CL!

Dammit, where's my CLS??!@

Acura wanted $550 from me. I called a place in yellow pages and they charged me about $220 using OEM glass. They came right to my house. They were unable to save stock molding so another $68 for new molding.

When I lived in Boston, my insurance covered windshield replacements 100% (no deductible) without any extra insurance fees. I think every state's different cuz I see people in Cali with cracked windshields all friggin time! As Shawn mentions, check your policy first, either it's free or you have to pay your comprehensive deductible at the most, don't pay from your own pocket if it's more than the deductible!

If the chip has already started to create a crack, it's too late...I would stick with it if it's only a chip. Go to an autoparts store and fill it in with that silicone stuff. It'll hold glass for a long time...
