(This is my opinion. I'm not associated with Novus. Just a satisfied customer.)
After a bit of bad luck on the Old Pac Filming Run it became necessary to replace the windscreen on my SW20.
Thumbs-up to Novus for doing a great job.
The guy arrived on time and worked carefully and accurately. He wasn't the most sociable - made it clear he wanted to be left alone to work - but that was fine by me given the standard of the job.
$280 all told.
He also gave me a sticker for use in the event of a stone chip. Putting the sticker over the chip prevents dirt from getting into the glass, which helps when repairing it. A good idea I think.

I too have used Novus on a few occasions.
Two thumbs up from me.
Both for tint and replacing front and rear windows.
I had a car with a smashed windscreen, and a wreck with a perfect windscreen.
The chances of removing a front windscreen are low, but the guy managed to remove it without breaking it.
Saved me about $200

Another thumbs up from Novus. Guy was a top bloke, didn't mind me watching and even explained it all to me. Looks awesome too, and he cut me a deal on the aftermarket seal.

It's just a sticker, with four little circles that can be peeled off. Nothing magical about it. Just about any sticker you have lying around should do the job.
The Novus ones are bright yellow though . If you really want one, PM me. I wouldn't dream of asking for any payment.

Hmmm, I remember that day, nasty crack, I've still got the piccies too Glad it's sorted now mate.
I've been up the Old Pac a few weeks ago and there are no where near as many loose rocks as when we went up for that run...

I was up there myself last weekend. Hardly any stones on the road, but I fear they are lurking on the shoulders. A general warning - if you're pulling to the side of the road, do it very slowly!
You took the Supra up there? That would have been nice . I shall have to check out the MR2s replacement soon.

Yea I took the Supra up there a while ago with Merudo and M.R.2, was fun. It doesn't take the corners quite as nicely as the MR2, but that's to be expected going from a MR to a FR But it handles well for it's size(I think so anyway, Bilstien suspension probably helps there, stiffer springs in the future also might not be a back idea) and boy does it pull outa corners!
We'll have to organise a run up there again in a few weeks, I'll let you know, or if you organise something let me know
