Default ya'll got fake poop?

my early 944 is originally a california car, bought in oakland i think, and then the owner moved to texas, then back to california, and then a guy bought it and drove it from california to west virginia, and i bought it. anyway, it has the original windshield, and from texas and/or california, the glass is really sandblasted to the point of: when the sun shines on it, i cant see through it. its almost lik eits constantly dirty...how evenly the tiny chips are dispursed. is there a product that fills in the really tiny nicks in glass like this? any other recommendations other than replacing the glass? anybody else's car do this? i have a little over 100,000 miles.

If someone posts a tech question in the OT forum, do I still get to post a nonsensical story? I'm confused.

If you can find the recipe for gingerbread men Christmas tree decorations on the back of a Motron's salt container, you can make a decent fake poop from that dough.

Actually, I use shampoo on my hair every day - as opposed to real poo.

A new windshield was the only fix for my Mercedes, whose windshield went from nice to pitted with 3 years of CA driving.

Very realistic versions available at most novelty/magic stores. Don't bother with the "laying on the ground" types; too easy to check for fakery. Get the ones that appear to clog the toilet bowl.

Best advise is the bigger the better. ("God, someone's still walking around after dropping THAT?")

Sorry, don't think it will help with your windshield, though.

New windshield...but don't get the cheap no name generic job or in 3-6 months... you will be buying it again for the same problem.

Eat 2 pounds of drywall compound, an ear of corn and a bag of oreos then make your own. After it dries throw it at the glass and call your ins co.

well, it did get my attention which I beleive was the point, lol. It's possible to try to have it buffed by a galss co. They better be good or it will be like looking through a funhouse mirror. I'd have to advise a new windsheild man, sorry.

I don't put anything in my hair with "poo" anything in it.

Soap & water only - for real men. Not that I have much hair anyway.

I had a waiter ask me the other day if I wanted guacamole with my nachos. He was trying too hard to be trendy/hipster and asked "you want some guac?". I thought he asked "you want some ****?" I got thrown out for punching his *** out and now I can't go back there.

This belongs in the 928 forum.

Every single night one of my kids comes in the kitchen where I am preparing dinner, the components of which are easily to be seen, and asks what we are having for dinner.

And every single night, my answer is: "Poop."

The best thing to do would be to replace it. If you do and want to stay OEM, SIGLA makes a great windshield thats cheaper than Porsche's Sekurit glass used.
