I'd be interested, but imagine shipping to Canada would be cost prohibitive

I’m interested. Here in Colorado, windshields are essentially consumable items. If there’s one that resists pitting and cracking better than OEM, I’m willing to pay more for it.Comment

I found a company here in Germany that offers a lighter windshield.
They claim a 3kg saving over stock. Their windshield is 9,7kg.
They are also willing to give group buy rebates, I will make a separate group buy thread when I get back home in a couple of hours.

They don't have a rear glass at the moment but if there is enough interest they would be willing to make it, rear glass development will just take additional time.Originally posted by Obioban View Post
Btw, they are getting their first heated windshield soon if anyone wants that.
Edit:
He mentioned that a lighter rear window will likely not get a dot number as the stock ones are usually made with the minimum thickness already.
But if there are at least 10 people interested in a rear glass as well they would make it.

I have the biggest crack on my front OEM windshield with the blue/green line up top. I'd like to retain the OEM glass so I'm looking at replacing it when I decide to pull the trigger on the CSL roof.
After researching on these forums, I was planning on getting an OEM windshield from Germany ordered through a local dealership. How much would shipping look like for something like this to the US?Comment

Does it come with the rain/light sensor prism glued to the glass?Comment

Would gorilla Glass be more chip resistant? Windshields are constantly getting nailed by stones around here. Mine is currently pitted pretty decently so would not mind a new one that's more durable.
I'm wondering if it would be beneficial to try and convince a decent size distributor to try and contact hyperperformance instead?
I imagine a known company that would be able to order, store and move a thousand or more units would be more convincing then what, in reality, would only be a few dozen to maybe over 100 group buy.
Cost per unit would go up most likely, but chances of getting them would as well. Not to mention long(er) term availability would be a plus.
Not trying to take away from the group by efforts by any means. Just a thought.Comment
