I got a rock "star" about 3 weeks after i bought it. It hasn't spread even through the winter. I haven't fixed it yet, because i know i'll get another one after i repair/replace it. That and it kinda adds character.

Sounds like a good deal. There was another thread here about some OEM replacement glass being thicker than the original and causing wind noise, etc.

We have a small spot, guess it's time to see if it can be repaired before it decides to spread.

The real shocker was not that it's "OEM replacement glass" at that price, it says Mopar on it, like I'd have gotten from a dealer and I can't tell the difference at all from the original. These guys left one one inch scratch kinda deep on the overhead plastic by the windshield latch, but that's the only problem I can find.
