    Hi, a few weeks ago, my 599 got a tiny round chip in its windshield. Its a surface ship, not deep at all, and its round - it hasn't spread nor do I think it will. Does having an extremely tiny chip affect the value of the car (its extremely nice condition with 12K miles)? Are there any pros and cons to getting it filled? Would it yellow over time? Thanks.

    I have one low on the passenger side the size of a half moon dime. I'm not touching it.

    I had basically the same chip on my 612. I had it filled by a pro (that's important) and 2 years later nobody can detect the repair. Even I forget it's there.

    They have come along with with filling chips and small cracks. Should address it, it may get bigger. I'm sure there are some good companies in your area that can take care of it and most insurance companies pay for it...
