Best company for windshields?

I am in need of windshields and was wondering if anyone has a spot they know of that sells good quality windows. I was just gonna pick one up from speedy but I thought one of you guys might know of a better place. TY

speedy is good. if you search around tho, you will find that independant dealers are sometimes cheaper, although, you may not get as good of a warranty that you would from speedy...

Well I picked up a PPG windshield and I installed it today after many hours of grinding and sanding and preping it just perfect. We will see how it goes when I turn it up this weekend.

U need a fat chick.... To sit on it, it's a mutual thing, she gets to vibrate, and your windshield stays in.... win/win situation if you ask me..Unless of course u are in the car looking out the windshield, in which case I am wayyy off.

Maybe u should just get two skinny chicks?
Hope this helped.
