I've seen the 'pro' guys do it and I'd prefer to leave it to them. They did mention to me that if you have chips, you should contact them ASAP. The longer the chip is exposed to grime and soap (from washing) the harder it is for them to get their epoxy to stick.

u can get a kit plus u need a drill with a very fine bit but youll only save about 20 bucks with the kit...take it to a pro and get it fixed asap before the chip becomes a crack and theyll fix it for u for around 50 bucks...

insurance will cover it because theyd rather fix a chip than a whole windshield...after u fix it the chip will barely show at all

DEFINITELY have a professional do it -- ASAP.

My philosophy: much better to have someone fix it who's already done it a couple hundred times, rather than do it yourself for the first time.
