Windshield

Real bummer today. I was traveling the freeway at about 70. Must have had something fairly large, from the sound of it a quarter in bolt at least come WHACK, hit the windshield. Pretty nice size chip in it. Didn't hit the paint anywhere, seemed to fly right over the car after hitting the windshield. I can't really tell if it is one of those things that will grow and become a crack all the way across the windshield or not.

Questions, repair? I know it can be done, will it be invisible after repair. Or should I just replace? Can they replace it and be as good as factory installed with everything nice and sealed up?

I guess my MC got christened today!!!
