Default my back window jsut got a rock thrown through it

yeah can u say fawking bull ****? i'm sitting here doing my nightly H-T reading, and i hear a car drive by, and clash, so i run out and my window is all over the street. I just wanna say this is bull ****, and if i find out who did it, they'll pay!!! So i call the police and they're like, ok, we'll file a report, that's all they do, so that sucks, and my gay insurance wonter cover it!? They didnt cover my bro's wheels when they got jacked, so i'm screwed on this.
So my Q is, how much is thie gunna cost to replace? (92 dx hatch)
damn i'm pissed, late

Sorry to here that. The glass shouldn't be that much. Maybe you can put a lexan glass in, that way it won't break and you save weight?

a exan window will be cheaper than real glass 50-75 bucks I would think. The biggest thing is that lexan dulls and scratches very easily. If your strapped for cash, go with the lexan but if you can afford the real one spring the extra cash and get it done right.

u wanna hear some real bull ****? So i call all the auto class places in town, and here are their stupid *** quotes for me:
cheapest 489.99+ tax
average 780.00
most 1,600.00!!!!!!
WHAT THE HELL!!!! they all say it's because my hatch's back window is so curved, and they says i cant get lexan, because of the huge concave! (calling scrap yards as we speak)
late
i guess this is what i get for taking off the crappy tint that was on it when i bought it. It shattered everywhere, even got up on my dash. stupid kids!!!!!!!!!!1

hehehe... your duct tape window ;D better than nothing, just dont leave the duct tape on for too long...

Why didn;t the insurance company cover your bro's wheels??? wtf??? They're bolted on for christs sake! Insurance is supposed to cover anything that is bolted down to your car (so most mods are covered...) but wtf??? Do we have an insurance knowy person here?

Both my brother and I have to pay for our own cars, and insurance, we're high school kids, and we have the minimum insurance. Pretty much, all it's good for is if i hit someone else, they'll pay for it. We did have the receipts for his wheels, (17" enkie rs-5s) dont remember the tires, but this **** is fucked up. Dont you think this would wall into the hit and run catagory?! i mean, they threw the rock outta their window, and drove off?! oh, and i got a question on how to fix something. It was throw so hard, it bent my back left seat forward 4"!!! i cant pull it back at all, any ideahs on how to bend it back?
and where's a good place to host images? geocities wont show my ghetto windows!
