ARE USED WINDSHIELDS A GOOD IDEA ???
Are Used Windshields Suitable for Windshield Replacement?

There's virtually no one that doesn't like to look for ways to save money. A car is one of our greatest monthly expenses, so it makes sense that there is so much attention on saving money on car maintenance anyway that is safe to do so. However, some saving tips that are passed around may not be the best for your vehicle. One tip that is often passed between friends is using a used windshield for a windshield replacement instead of buying a new one.
The problem with this is that a used windshield holds no guarantee over the integrity of the glass. Even though the glass may appear to be just fine, there may be structural weaknesses that haven't been exposed yet. A used windshield is not something that can be placed on by a professional auto glass technician due to the unknown quality of the glass or where it may have come from????. IE, Junk yards or damaged in a  collision                                                                     

   In short, used windshields just aren't a safe option for anyone — after all, the windshield is one of the most important components of your car's safety program.CHECK OUT THE REST OF THE STORY IN THE "ALL ABOUT GLASS SECTION"

Windshield chip repairs..   what to do when you get one

Replacement windshields are expensive; well built OEM brands can easily run over $1,000. Apart from serious accidents, with proper care, most car owners should be able to keep the same windshield throughout the lifespan of your vehicle. The key to windshield maintenance is to prevent dings and cracks and to treat those cracks as soon as possible.

   Make Your Neighbor Jealous 

   You take a special pride in your car, so you like to drive something a little less conventional and a little more personal. Potential improvements range from simple tire and wheel upgrades to overhauling your car's body and electronics. Here are some of today's hottest entry-level mods.
 
Tires and wheels.
If you're looking to change the look of your car, consider a new set of tires and wheels. It's the mod equivalent of a facelift, and at the same time, could improve handling, acceleration, and stopping power. It's simple because it essentially just means swapping out a few removable parts (your old tires and wheels) and popping in new ones. If you opt for wider wheels, your car will have that much more contact with the road surface. If you go with taller rims, you'll draw more attention to your wheels.

Car audio system upgrade.
Your car is an extension of yourself. And your music is part of who you are as well. For lots of car guys, the pride they take in making their ride look good extends to making their car sound good. What could be more American and more downright fun than a road trip (or a trip to the store) with your favorite tunes blasting? Unfortunately, most stock stereo systems just don't cut it, so what you need is a sweet aftermarket upgrade. Key components of this mod include a head unit, amps, speaker, and a subwoofer. Installation is pretty easy if you're handy with a few tools and know your way around your dashboard.

Chrome accessories.
Human beings like shiny objects, and so do cars. Chrome car mods are made for almost every part of the vehicle, including bumpers, hubcaps, linings, headers, windshield wipers, fenders, and more. The quality of the plating is key when customizing your car with a chromed part. Avoid any part that looks like it has wrinkles or discoloration in the finish.

Body modification kits.
This mod will change your car's personality dramatically. Just by adding bumper spoilers, side skirts, or a rear spoiler, your car will appear more aggressive without the need for extensive modification or body panel replacement. Another benefit of this type of mod can be better aerodynamics. By lowering the body, for instance, more air could be forced to go over the top of your ride, providing greater down-force across the entire vehicle. Greater down-force may allow your vehicle to hug the road better.

Customize your car's suspension.
You can enhance the look of your car by lowering or raising the ride height—giving it a more aggressive and sportier appearance. If done correctly, it can also improve the car's handling and road holding capabilities. 
 

                                                                                  


  Save Money, Keep Your Car Looking Sharp
While you can't keep it on the road forever, here are some easy DIY tips that can extend your car's life well into its golden years.
 
Change vital filters and fluids
Even the most mechanically challenged drivers know to change a car's oil and oil filter on a regular basis. But other fluids (like antifreeze, brake, and transmission, for example) and filters also need regular maintenance. "This is important because over time they, too, lose important properties-like their ability to remove heat and lubricate, and their ability to prevent rust and freezing," "For example, changing your air filter helps your car breathe easier and its engine last longer. If your air filter is clogged, your engine is not performing properly. It also hurts your fuel economy because the engine is working harder to get more air." STP® Power Steering Fluid* and STP Brake Fluid* are good choices for topping up reservoirs. You can also keep fuel injectors and fuel systems clean with STP products like STP Complete Fuel System Cleaner* and STP Fuel Injector & Carburetor Treatment*.

CHECK YOUR COOLING SYSTEM Making sure your car's cooling system is working properly and coolant levels are correct is as important as making                sure the engine is well lubed and can potentially save you  thousands of dollars in repairs. "A cooling system failure  can result in your engine failure. Make sure the coolant is at the right level and check hoses for wear marks or leaks.

Drive Smarter
The way you drive has an effect on how long your car will last. Drive gently. Accelerate slowly. Anticipate your braking so you can avoid panic stops. But also give your car time to warm up so the oil is freely circulating through the system and fully lubricating internal components before you leave the driveway. All of these things will lessen the wear and tear on your car and possibly enhance fuel-efficiency. 

KEEP IT CLEAN A clean car is a happy car and a happy car makes a Happy owner. Spend the time to properly clean and maintain the exterior and interior of your vehicle. Washing and waxing protects the paint and the look Which in turn will make you more proud to drive. Also dont neglect the inside...It where you spend the most time isnt it? Soo..Why shouldnt it be kept clean? Spending just a little extra time to chase down the lost fry from last week from under your seat, a good vac and a littlt bit of shinny stuff on the dash will do wonders. Plus we all know a clean car always runs better...right?
