I hear ya. I've had a few bullets myself, but not near as bad as Gord.

Unfortunately, MINI's are more susceptible to rockchips due their bull-dog like stance. Best get the chip filled in right away, before it cracks.

I hate that. I was hit by a giant mungo rock while driving home from Vancouver on Tuesday. Got a hole in the windscreen and a giant chunk of paint gouged out right beside the windscreen!!!!!

Does anyone know of a place in Calgary that does good paint chip repair? I don't want to repaint the entire pillar, but I'm down past paint, primer, metal protectant and probably through the first several layers of metal too! It was one hell of a nasty rock

My dad had a small hole on his car's windscreen when i was a kid.
And being a half italian, everyone at school thought he is in mafia and got shot.
