Mine is also pitted, with a very small chip with a very, very short crack (almost a starfire pattern). Passes inspection no problem, people don't see it, it's been that way for 4 years now.
While I have full coverage and it would be covered by my policy, I'm just going to pay for it myself.
Why? Because an insurance claim is a claim, no matter how you look at it. My wife had a chip repaired (they should have put a new windshield in) and it cost them under $100 to have the "repair" done.
When we bought her 04 TL I wanted her to go onto my policy to get a better rate. We were told that while my record was flawless, she had a claim in the past 3 years, and thus we were bumped up into the next category, costing us an additional $150 per year in insurance cost.
So do I did the math. I could have paid for that repair myself 5 times over and still saved money by the time it gets off of her claim history.
BTW, her going on my policy was over $300 per year cheaper versus me going on her policy (I think her company was trying to "gouge" to get paid back for her "claim".
It's not worth making the claim in my opinion.
